I like it. Wordpress charges extra for plugins, Appspot is blocked in China, Rhcloud closed down, and I registered Github pages while they still gave out .com subdomains.
My personal website is written in Markdown and loaded & converted to HTML on load using JavaScript. I hard-coded the whole thing a few years ago, and I dread maintaining it so I rarely post.
Now there's a decent CMS that's targeted to Github, I'll experiment with it and seriously consider migrating my website over to Netlify.
- lima 9y agorhcloud did not shut down, it was superseded by OpenShift.io.
- peterburkimsher 9y agoOpenShift.io is "Currently waitlisting registrants." and I think it will only give .io subdomains, not .com subdomains. I like being able to give my personal website as http://peterburk.github.com http://peterburk.github.com because the .com subdomain makes it sound more professional somehow. Non-English speakers will recognise a .com when they might not recognise .io as a URL.
