• Why is laravel so culty?

  It's not a WordPress clone but I've been wanting to check out October CMS for a while and just noticed this Twill project that looks like it would be along the same lines. Source: about 1 year ago

• best php-based cms/tech choice

  Beside Symfony there is Laravel Framework , I will not go into deep difference between this frameworks as it really is just taste of what your team likes more (active record vs datamapper, facade/helpers vs dependency injection, blade vs twig, ...), as already mention above this kind of CMS make sense if Website is just one part of your application and you have to build more then just a simple digital business...

• Look for direction, wanting to make websites for clients.

  How comfortable are you with learning PHP? WordPress is the obvious choice due to it's popularity (but with it moving towards a full-site editing experience it isn't as fun to work with anymore IMO but that's just me). You could also look into things like Statamic or October CMS which are supposed to be very nice to work with as I believe they're both Laravel based. Source: almost 2 years ago

• Building a blog website with some landing pages. Laravel instead of WordPress?

  As u/frontendben said, you can use Statamic CMS, it is a decent solution, and there are a number of others like October CMS, Asgard CMS (a bit old, but quite solid), LavaLite, Pyro etc. Craft CMS (based on Yii) could also be a possibility. Here is a list of someone's opinions on 5 popular Laravel-based CMSs. Source: about 2 years ago

• Why WordPress is an utter load of crap to build a serious business website with

  I've used OctoberCMS[1] for a smaller project, and this looks similar on first glance. (Might just be the Lavarel underpinnings.) What I really like about October is the ability to quickly spin up small CRUD database functionality (index + detail pages and simple backend updates for "custom" objects like staff members, white papers, etc.) using their Builder plugin. Any idea if Statamic offers something similar... - Source: Hacker News / over 2 years ago

• Google Drive misplaces months' worth of customer data

  This is not for everyone, but I host my family photos myself, most recently with this: https://piwigo.org/. I have been doing this since 2007 (started on a different software, called "gallery". Was able to migrate from gallery2 to gallery3 and now piwigo), and so far no major issues. Advantage: I can easily share photos with family, no need for iCloud, Facebook, or indeed any service- they just need a web browser... - Source: Hacker News / 7 months ago

• Ask HN: What are some self-hosted photo organizing/sharing programs?

  There is also Piwigo which is open-source and can be self hosted. https://piwigo.org/. - Source: Hacker News / 10 months ago

• I created UltimateHomeServer - A K3s based all-in-one home server solution

  A couple additiona maybe?: - Piwigo great for photo management. Could be used as an alternative to Google Photos - Nexcloud for file sharing. Replacement for Google Drive. Source: about 1 year ago

• Is there a way to create a mass photo storage system that can be accessed anywhere?

  I use https://piwigo.org/ on a old PC that I installed Linux on. Source: about 1 year ago

• Organization of projects, photos and models?

  I have on my list to evaluate self-hosted image clouds Piwigo and Photoprism but they don't bridge the photogrammetry gap either. It might even be more time consuming if I have to download the assets I'm working on first. Source: about 1 year ago
