Hell yeah! I've been blogging for a couple years but I just use Micro.blog. I'd like to switch to something completely self hosted one of these days though.
I just spun up my own Ghost blog, being self-hosted and interacts with the Fediverse. Plus it's pretty without me needing to know how.
I've been really curious about Ghost lately! I set it up in a container on pikapods not too long ago but I ended up staying on Micro.blog. Something I really liked that I had no idea about beforehand was that they have their own little Discover feed over there right? It felt too serious for me when I mostly run an old school link/microblog kinda blog and it seems SO optimized for mailing lists and subscribers
Yeah, there is a lot of focus on getting your site out, but I just ignore all that part. I just wanted a nice place to self-host my travels without having to think much about it and it seems to fit that bill. But yeah, there is a place to discover other feeds and to comment on other people's posts from the Fediverse and what not.
nice! I took a look at all the options....
and decided that its all too much. wordpress get hacked daily. writefreely wouldn't install. And some of the other centralized services kinda suck. So im back to old: nginx with a director filled with txt files haha.
Ill publish as time goes on and by interest. Ill take a look at micro.blog too. But im thinking I might create a neocities at some point just for the fun of it.
Neocities isn't a bad option tbh. I haven't used it in a minute but if you're thinking about neocities I really really liked bearblog.dev too!
