Pingendo Reviews

• One of the greatest user interface disasters in history

  Mastodon is a microblogging service, so not meant for large bodies of text. This is why the text entry box is small, the columns are somewhat narrow (especially in deck mode) etc. Platforms like https://writefreely.org/ , which are designed to be for blogging and long-form writing, are the place to write this. Write Freely federates so one can follow accounts and interact with posts via Mastodon etc. - Source: Hacker News / 5 months ago

• Which platform for occasional blog posts?

  An alternative to Plume is WriteFreely, which is a pretty clean & simple experience. Just don't expect to much regarding customization. Source: 11 months ago

• ActivityPub server that can run on Docker with external db?

  And since you've mentioned you want to write a blog, take a look at WriteFreely: https://writefreely.org/. Source: 12 months ago

• Writefreely

  I'm not sure what you've tried to install, but WriteFreely is Open Source and thus free of charge. There is commercial hosting of it, eg. write.as, but with those you don't have to worry about installing it. Source: about 1 year ago

• Newbie Question

  Instead of joining a Mastodon server, have you considered joining a write.freely server? Write.freely is a decentralized platform for writers that integrates the ActivityPub protocol, so anyone in the Fediverse can interact with your posts. This may be more well suited for your needs, although if you still want to join a Mastodon server there are many good answers in this thread. Source: about 1 year ago

• Ask HN: What software do you wish someone would build for you?

  I've always wanted something like https://pingendo.com/ but OSS and would generate much more lightweight sites. I really enjoyed using Pingendo a few years back. - Source: Hacker News / 3 months ago

• is there like a gui tool where u can just drag, drop,resize,colour components on a layout to speed up front end developmemt

  I played with Pingendo a few years back and it was useful if you use Bootstrap and want to throw something together quickly. Source: about 1 year ago

• Help me locate this website.

  They're all using Bootstrap, so they're probably made by hand using the same theme, but they could also have used some kind of WYSIWYG editor that supports Bootstrap, like Pinegrow or Pingendo. Source: almost 3 years ago
