I am thinking about setting up a simple blog on a spare Raspberry Pi using YunoHost. I want it to be federated (of course), and it looks like my only choices are WordPress or Ghost. Are there any other lightweight CMS out there that are federated that appear on this list? Thanks.
@5teverin0 Writefreely might be a good option, it’s built around being federated. It’s in the social media category instead of the publishing category, but it’s intended for blogs instead of microblogs.
Oh, excellent! I originally started out trying to install WriteFreely with Ngnx, but kept running into problems, so I gave up. Never thought to look in that category - thanks!
Careful, though: WriteFreely is solid, but limited.
For example, it has no comments. Like, there’s no way you can interact with a WriteFreely post, at least none that the author would notice. Comments are planned, but way down the to-do list.
Also, while you can embed images, you have to host them externally and then hotlink them. I think this is one of the next things that WriteFreely will tackle. It’s possible; Plume has its own built-in image hoster, but Plume is so underdeveloped that its devs recommend WriteFreely instead.
