   I need to think about it because there is a threshold in terms of price below which it's no longer convenient for me due to the payment processing fees. Charging per the number of posts means that if someone publishes say only one or t

   For now I am taking notes but I need to think this through. I really don't want to compromise the ease of use :)

   I'm taking a note. Shouldn't take too long to implement but I think this would be optional as some people could be happy with the just difficult to guess address. :)

   I'll think about it. For me keeping things simple is a priority. What are the chances that a user might share the unique email address by mistake?

   Not sure if that would work. I think an explicit title is clearer in defining the subject :)

   Hi, and thanks a lot for the kind words! I am "just" a developer so I have no experience with marketing and am not very confident about how I communicate what I propose, so I am very happy to read that you find it clear! Thanks ag

   Hi! I haven't considered pricing per the amount of content or similar structure, I'm afraid it would become too complicated as pricing. What do you suggest? What kind of plans? At the moment I have just one plan with pricing per s

   Interesting. For me a post without title would be weird. How do you determine the subject at a glance without having to read it first? :)

    Hi! And thanks :) Currently you can attach only images to posts, but I'll take a note about other file types. Thanks!

    What kind of key? I am just afraid to make it "complicated" because now it's as simple as sending an email to some address. :)

    Oh I see, I thought it was multitenancy etc :)

    For one it's a lot cheaper - I use Hetzner Cloud and I have plenty of resources for just 70e/mo. But I also like devops etc so I don't mind it :) Later of course I can switch easily to a managed service if needed.

    For me witb DynaBlogger the thing that took most of the time was implementing the themes so that they can be edited by the users. A blogging platform isn't rocket science but can be challenging for some things. :)

    Yeah I think it would be a little overkill. The unique email addresses are almost impossible to guess so you just need to make sure you don't share them with anyone.

    Thanks! Very happy so far with how it's going. The app is written in Rails, and I use Postgres/Redis for the data and memcached for a lot of caching. Everything is hosted in a Kubernetes cluster than I manage entirely myself. Ask

    Hi! You're the second person who asks about this :) For now I am focussing on the hosted version but I will consider a self hosted option at some point.

    Agree, that's not much. Since I submitted this I saw up to 2K concurrent users at some point when I was 1st. Would be nice to have this sort of traffic for a week! :p

    I like that :D

    Hi! The best example for now is my own blog since it has quite a bit of content https://vitobotta.com/ - it's a blog about programming and devops :)

    Hi! Import and export is on my list already. It will be possible to export both in json format (so for example you can move content between blogs in DynaBlogger) and to plain HTML so in the worst case scenario, the user can just export to s

    Not currently, but it would be a few minutes work to add that possibility. I'll take a note about it :)

    Hi! I like the idea actually. How much would you pay for this feature?

    At the moment authorization relies on the secrecy of the unique address, yes. I wanted to keep it simple. As long as you don't share that address, which is close to impossible to guess, you should be fine. Is there something else you w

    Thanks for confirming. Sometimes the translated equivalent might be misleading :)

    Hi! Thanks for the nice words! :) For now I am not limiting traffic etc because I'm still in the beginning so I'll see how it goes. I have a ton of bandwidth paid for with the servers so it will be mostly a matter of load on the s

    Sure! DynaBlogger is a Rails app, so I could use some built in support for this called ActionMailbox. It's pretty simple really and it supports various email services. I use Postmark for this :)

    Hi! And thanks :) Not sure if frustration is the right word (not native speaker) but I wasn't happy with existing tools for a reason or another so I thought why not build one that I truly like :)

    Hi! And thanks a lot for the nice comments! :) To be honest I borrowed the idea of publishing via email from Hey World. That platform is too minimal but it's nice that you can post also by sending an email, so I implemented this featur

    Totally, that's a very important reason to use a CDN.
