Ask HN: Who's Blogging (November 2019)
Are you blogging? What platform do you use? Static or Dynamic? Self-hosting or not?

- alexmingoia 7y agoI’m blogging at https://alexmingoia.com https://alexmingoia.com I use Etch (https://etch.blog https://etch.blog) - a personal blogging platform with a built-in newsletter, custom domains and SSL, and no ads or popups. I was self-hosting but got sick of dealing with it and founded Etch ;)
- SkyLinx 7y agoHi! How can you charge such a low price? Also an unrelated technical question: how do you manage certificates for custom domains? Thanks
- alexmingoia 7y agoWe think personal blogging should be affordable, and it doesn’t cost much to serve static cached HTML. In the future we may raise prices, but we’re bootstrapped so there’s no pressure to make millions hosting blogs. We use Lets Encrypt to provide certificates, which is entirely automated.
- otras 7y agohttps://alexanderell.is https://alexanderell.is I write on a simple static Hugo blog running on GitHub pages. I found that anything else makes tinkering too easy, which distracts me from the goal of writing. Writing often is hard enough, and I definitely don't need anything else getting in the way!
