I finally found a decent WordPress alternative, for writing at least. Does it have complex setups like categories, search fields, a proper posts organization through queries? No. But at least if WordPress fails I have an accessible alternative to share contents. Looking at all @WeirdWriter resources he shared. And, overall, this basic blog uses MarkDown. BearBlog's the name. #blogging #writing #WordPress #markdown also mention @lealternative

@talksina @lealternative On mobile so short reply for now but No categories but tags are similar. While it is true it is not a CMS, it can still display a list of posts and more. See https://docs.bearblog.dev/embedding-blog-post-lists/
-
@WeirdWriter @lealternative In fact I'm very very curious to read docs in deep. I think I can even write long posts, right?
-
@talksina @WeirdWriter @lealternative fwiw, you might try Craft CMS? The solo version is free, and the editor interface passes at least WCAG AA last i checked.
-
@adrienne @talksina @lealternative Where is there a managed version of craft CMS that I could try?
-
@WeirdWriter @talksina @lealternative Craft itself does have a managed hosting department, but their plans are geared toward bigger businesses and are expensive. It's self-hostable on pretty much any decent webhost. But if you just want to play around with it in order to evaluate it, and don't want to wrestle with webhosting, i can just spin you up a copy on my own hosting and let you run amok, if you'd like?
-
@adrienne @WeirdWriter @lealternative As far as I know, Craft CMS is designed for devs, its installation process is difficult - am I wrong? I have a cpanel-based site, not those with ssh and stuff (I could even not be able to use those)
-
@adrienne @WeirdWriter @lealternative Btw yes, you could even give me a demo cms so I can see its functions. Send me a dm on mastodon if needed
