Q: I use GH pages for my simple site. Why would I use prose over GH pages with a simple action to turn markdown + template —> html and put it on a GH-pages branch for publish?
- toastal 4y agoGitHub Pages (or many alternative static hosts) will be more rich experience as you can control the rendering pipeline and the presentation (CSS). This looks to take some of the concern away and focus on the content instead of presentation and build pipelines (which limits expression). Both options, the code isn't on your own server which could pose a 'freedom' risk depending on what you're saying as well as limited ability to modify the server (like adding Brotli compression (both only seem to provide GZip only) and adding security headers; see Prose.sh has an F score on Mozilla Observatory https://observatory.mozilla.org/analyze/prose.sh https://observatory.mozilla.org/analyze/prose.sh which will carry over to your blog). GitHub will mean you're on a proprietary, closed-source, Microsoft-owned platform top to bottom vs. Prose which is open source on SourceHut.
