Reviewers mostly see Ghost as a clean, easy publishing CMS that works well for blogs, newsletters, memberships, and hosted setups, with strong support, solid documentation, quick launches, and a fast, convenient editor. Several users also like recent improvements to comments, analytics, and newsletter controls. The main complaints are repeated and specific: email sending is tied to Mailgun, custom sender setup can be fiddly, design and navigation options feel limited, and migration or imported-post editing can be frustrating. One long-term user sharply criticizes extensibility, API limits, and frontend maintainability.
