• 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 / 6 months ago

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

• 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 / 10 months ago

• Typepad Is Shutting Down

  They should provide an option to move to https://ghost.org/. - Source: Hacker News / 11 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 / 11 months ago

• Ask HN: Freelancer? Seeking freelancer? (May 2024)

  I’m a writer and editor with an interest in content strategy and a technical bent. I am especially good at pulling together the threads of tech history (which you may have seen on my newsletter Tedium, which periodically shows up on HN) but also have two decades of work history in marketing and journalism. As a freelancer, I’ve written many popular stories for Vice’s Motherboard and just published a story in Fast... - Source: Hacker News / about 2 years ago

• Ask HN: Do newsletters work? Why do websites push them so much?

  Newsletter author here. I run two actually—Tedium (https://tedium.co/) and MidRange (https://midrange.tedium.co). Yes, they work. Beyond the ROI benefits already mentioned by other folks, it’s seen as an “owned” platform, something that you control, versus social media, where the platform is operated by someone else. You can make changes and adapt more efficiently to subscriber needs than somewhere like social... - Source: Hacker News / almost 4 years ago

• Craft CMS 4 Released

  I have been using Craft to run my newsletter, Tedium (https://tedium.co), since the start of 2019. I moved from Ghost, which at the time was not really designed for newsletters at all. I find Craft an amazing tool when I want to add new things—a big difference from Ghost, where everything is just kind of set for you and you have to rely on external integrations to expand functionality. I custom-code my emails and... - Source: Hacker News / about 4 years ago

• Ask HN: Share Your Personal Site

  Https://tedium.co A newsletter that also has a website attached. I set up the backend so it spits out full code for a newsletter in a specific backend view. - Source: Hacker News / over 4 years ago

• The Complicated Futility of WordPress

  I run Craft CMS for Tedium (https://tedium.co). I could push it further but one way I use it is by creating a custom view that “spits” out a completed email template with all of my desired layout considerations and quirks already considered. I could push it further and run the newsletter through Craft itself, though I’ve chosen to pay someone to manage the sending of the email. (And while not particularly... - Source: Hacker News / over 4 years ago
