    Hey guys

    Just found this little tool again

    https://ghostboard.io/

    What sold me is the check-link feature & clear unused image uploads.

    Still a bit pricey. Wish it was self-hostable.

    Looks quite good though, the pricing is not that bad when you compare similar plugins on WordPress. Certainly appears quite feature-rich.

    I like Ghost for many reasons but am still nervous about it for reasons I can't explain.

    Same.

    Mostly, I think, because doing basically anything with Ghost seems to require messing with code.

    But also due to the fact they basically decided to do no work making their editor work on mobiles, so you can't really do anything on mobile.

    I use Cloudron with Gandi & Hetzner

    This is definitely a reason. It can be difficult to make any changes without going into the code.

    I also don't like their 'integrations' which is a sloppy alternative to an app store for add-ons. A prime example, inserting images using unsplash, they have that built-in but it is kind of useless. If you directly add an image using the unsplash integration it can't resize it so your site ends up with large non-optimized images. Solution? Download the image and then upload it. WTAF?

    Most of their integrations require adding things to the header, CDNs and so on, it just ends up bloating the site and slowing it down.

    Far too opinionated in the way you should, perhaps must use it.

    It is a great idea, works well for many who just want to start blogging and have no specific theme/plugin requirements but done in node.js has created so many limitations it's just not very flexible.
