@narF @reiver @Veritas I am aware of that, and it will be a great addition to the fediverse, but what I was talking about is more like a social media platform than long post blogger platform


@altair222 I mentioned wordpress because of its ease of use and installation, writefreely is written in go, you will need a VPS for that.
I wish for a pleroma or mastodom server easily deployable on php LAMP stack.


@reiver @Veritas
website hosting plans are the cheapest, and easiest to manage , many hosts include hostinger, dreamhost, digital ocean , 1&1, ovh … (even though their basic plans could limit a social media software’s functionalities)
non techy people can easly host, maintain, and tweaks their wordpress or drupal websites.
hosting on VPS and dedicated servers is reserved to the very few technicaly savy and trained people. + they are more expensive to run.


@Veritas Ohhh a wordpress like program you can easily install on any php web hosting provider for personal use, I don’t know why so many #fediverse software (#mastodon, #pleroma, #misskey, #lemmy) missed the mark and went with ruby elixir and the like, I bet those are the languages devs are familiar with
I am confident many software could be refactored into php code (friendica and hubzilla already exist) and it could really help speed up growth and make some people feel in control of their data.
