The following are some motivating philosophies:
- Open-source. MIT License
- Privacy-first. This is for sharing with friends and family, not commercial endevors. If you want a blog for your company, you probably want to use WordPress or Ghost instead.
- Easy to use. Built-in web interface for managing users, customizing the blog, and writing/editing posts with markdown and live-preview.
- Low-bandwidth friendly. Images get downscaled to reduce page load times. No javascript frameworks. No ads or trackers.
- Customizable. Add custom CSS or fonts.
- No spam. There is no self-signup for users so there is no place for unauthorized users to impact your life.
- Media support for images, videos, and audio.
- Private RSS feeds for your friends to follow you.
- Build-in RSS reader to follow your favorite blogs.
