• Local Journalism Is How Democracy Shows Up Close to Home

  Digital production has lowered the cost, and the Ghost platform in particular is a great value for small publishers, bundling together the blog, newsletter and subscriptions in one package, even now including ActivityPub federation. And Ghost themselves a non-profit org that doesn't mark up the Stripe transaction fees! One local news outlet recently switched to that, saving about %5 on Patreon fees and a second is... - Source: Hacker News / 7 months ago

• Bye Bye Big Tech: How I Migrated to an Almost All-EU Stack (and Saved 500€/Year)

  Https://ghost.org — Open-source run by a non-profit headquartered in Singapore. - Source: Hacker News / 8 months ago

• Ask HN: Looking for Headless CMS Recommendation

  If you're hell-bent on headless, I can personally recommend 11ty (https://www.11ty.dev/) and hugo (https://gohugo.io/). That said, for non-technical admins, you probably want a user interface. For that, Ghost (https://ghost.org/) and Grav (https://getgrav.org/). Or Wordpress! - Source: Hacker News / 12 months ago

• Typepad Is Shutting Down

  They should provide an option to move to https://ghost.org/. - Source: Hacker News / 12 months ago

• Build an analytics agent to analyze your Ghost blog traffic with the Vercel AI SDK and Tinybird

  In this post, I'll show you how to build an agent with sufficient contextual understanding of underlying analytics data - and the tools to query it - so that you can have a chat with your data (any data!). Specifically, I'll build a simple analytics agent for a blog - hosted on the open-source publishing platform Ghost. The agent will tell us which content is performing the best, and why. - Source: dev.to / about 1 year ago

• Bluesky's active user base is shrinking as its focus expands beyond the app

  My problem is usually that I bookmark in the app, but then forget about the bookmarks as they are in the walled garden. I've built something for that a few years ago (https://getbirdfeeder.com) that just sends me my Bluesky (And X, Mastodon etc.) bookmarks straight to my email inbox once a month. - Source: Hacker News / 14 days ago

• Jack Dorsey launches Buzz to combine team chat, AI agents and Git hosting

  I've recently built some project that also supports Nostr (https://getbirdfeeder.com, but more for the fun of playing with Nostr) but it feels very forced to use it for something like that. It feels like it's solving an issue that no team chat ever has. > Buzz is built around a self-hostable Nostr relay. Every message, reaction, workflow step, code event and approval is stored as a cryptographically signed event.... - Source: Hacker News / about 1 month ago

• Ask HN: What Are You Working On? (July 2026)

  I'm building a Twitter (X), Bluesky, Nostr and Mastodon bookmark reminder and manager called https://getbirdfeeder.com. It's a project I've released many years ago but had to shut down during the X API changes. I've now revived it and supported more services. - Source: Hacker News / about 1 month ago

• It's OK to abandon your side-project

  I always had a hard time with that and kept things running for too long as putting additional work into shutting something down when you already lost interest is a hard sell. Now I usually just add a static landing page, some screenshots how it looked like and turn of the backend (Example: https://getbirdfeeder.com) which makes me feel better about it. - Source: Hacker News / 4 months ago

• Ask HN: What are you working on? (April 2025)

  I’m working on supporting photo posts on my blog (Kirby), I bought a new camera and thought it would be nice to share them in one place (Cross post to Mastodon). I’m still looking for a new SaaS idea, so if you have something you want to partner on do reach out. Preferably Rails or Go. Previously I built stuff like https://getbirdfeeder.com/. - Source: Hacker News / over 1 year ago
