I follow Ghost's development here and there, and the founder of Ghost, John O'Nolan, was the guest on a podcast by Binpress.

We use Ghost in our blog platform, and someday, we hope to have the Ghost team switch over their forum to NodeBB

Cheers to that, hopefully someday soon!

Interesting listen... Took me a few minutes to work out he was British. His accent fluctuates, good to see they've got a marketplace up and running now though for people to really customise their blogs.

@julian someone should make a soundcloud plugin

EDIT: They should have normalised the volume, didn't realise quite how high I had the sound on my headphones, just got a notification on NodeBB....... The pain.

Now I see why you posted this.

@a_5mith Thanks for noticing the sound issue! I didn't realize there was a problem. I had bumped up the audio, but it turns out the normalization thought it was too loud... and made it softer. (At least that's my understanding of the issue.)

I tweaked some levels and uploaded new files, so it should be better for future listeners.

[a_5mith]

@alexissantos Not a problem. Normalis(z)ation likes to work both ways.

Replace, "Khaaaaaaaaan!" with "Normalizatioooooon!," and you'll know how I feel.

Hey @alexissantos, nice to see you here. Any chance we can get you to dump Disqus and use NodeBB as comments?

Edit: @a_5mith How dare you spell normalisation with a z. We speak the Queen's English here, ya yank.

Edit 2: Uh-oh, he's actually from across the pond.

[alexissantos]

It's a possibility, haha. I'm not familiar with the Binpress stack, but I can find out what it looks like...

That said, if we need a forum... I know where to go.

PS If I need a forum for a personal project, I'd likely go with NodeBB -- even though I usually wield Python/Django.

PPS Yes, I'm the terrible yank who uses ZEDS everywhere!

[Baldy]

Interesting. Their forum is very clean. Are they using their own code?

NodeBB is pretty fascinating, I'm glad I found you. I have a couple big forums stuck on vBulletin and I'm trying to figure out how to modernize. Deep diving on Discourse and you.
