i’m looking for a place/means/medium for texts that i write. content is essays on topics that i find worthy writing about with hints towars philosophy (i guess).
twenty years ago the right answer to my question would have been a (we-)blog - what’s the current day equivalent for such a venture?
optimally, a solution would neither be based on lock-ins, data collection/aggregation or other shady business and would be freely (e.g. in a web browser, no login/registration required) and easily accessible.
Do you have any opinions on or comparison of the two?
I used to prefer Plume because it’s written in Rust, but, well, it seems like it isn’t maintained right now, so WriteFreely is currently the better option
I don’t see anyone open for no cost right now (at least not in English). Might see about self-hosting if it’ll run on a raspberry pi.
There are many open WriteFreely instances: https://writefreely.org/instances
Write.as is kinda the flagship instance
Write.as is closed at the free tier now, but I found paper.wf so that’ll work. Now I just need to figure out what I want to do with it. I can do professional blogging on GitHub, so I’ll have to find another voice and topic.
Plume seems discontinued or not actively maintained (anymore)
