Pretty impressed with the first part (I didn't yet know a reasonably functional blogging CMS that doesn't require posts to have titles) but lack of media embedding feature effectively disqualifies the rest for me. Lack of way to embed pictures seems next to ridiculous nowadays, lack of way to embed YouTube videos feels a huge inconvenience (this is exactly what makes me unhappy with GitHub Pages), native support for SoudCloud tracks, formulae and diagrams is what I would love to have but can substitute with a workaround (by hosting audio tracks on YouTube and rendering formulae/diagrams to pictures).
- egypturnash 8y agoFWIW, Wordpress is happy to let you post something with a blank title field. I'm looking at my self-hosted WP installation and I've got a couple dozen that float to the top when I sort by title.
- qwerty456127 8y agoIMHO Wordpress is _unreasonably_ functional. It seems a Lovecraftian monster of complexity to me.
- egypturnash 8y agoYeah, it’s got a lot of features, even without opening up the Pandora’s vault of plugins. Anything that’s getting close to old enough to vote is scary inside.
