👻 When searching for alternative blogging platforms, the first thing I look for is Drafts support. Sadly it seems Ghost is out. Damn!

@maique What are the features you are looking for in a host/service? Seems like a blog post about it may be required.

@mcg What I'm looking for is Micro.blog, with no hiccups, and better support. That would be my perfect hosting service.

All others miss one, or multiple, features.

At the moment my workflow is as perfect as it's ever been, and would love to keep it.

@maique The last thing I would want to do is manage a Wordpress install, but as I was thinking today, it could likely do most of what M.B does. Import RSS feeds, and publish as RSS, ActivityPub, and more.

chipotle,

@maique Mildly surprising, since Ulysses and IA Writer can publish to it. Maybe you can make your own Drafts action!

@chipotle You are right. They do have an API, gave the docs a first go. I might try it, hope it’s not too hard for my very basic knowledge🙂

    @ctt Not sure, giving it a look as well. I’ve had one blog hosted there (sticker spotter), and it was great for that.

    What I’m looking for, in fact, is Micro.blog, but one with no reliability issues, and with decent support. Living in the EU (or not in the US), and having one person doing everything, replying a day later (or not at all), is not ideal.

    @ctt There is not, and I’m afraid it would. Micro.blog is near perfect, for my needs. Shame that reliability has been going down so much.

    @ctt There are a lot of places/alternatives. None I’ve found offer the whole package that Micro.blog has going.

    @ctt You don’t have to give up that part, your blog can still be imported to the timeline, and you can still interact with the community.

    @ctt It’s a feature. Lots of people do it. Check the free option at the bottom of https://micro.blog/pricing

    @gdp My issues, and I can’t stress this enough, are very minor. They are annoying, and happen more often than I’d like, but minor. It’s just the lack of support in our timezone, and the fact that these issues are barely acknowledged, when they are the core of the whole thing.

    @ctt You are very right. Agree with everything, including the part where you should get some rest 🙂

    @ctt Just seen it. He was using his weblog.lol for a while now, and also the new Scribbles for a couple of days.

    @maique Hate it say it but you’re going about it all wrong mate. Drafts can publish to API, email, share menu, HTTP request, all sorts. The question is does Drafts support Ghost, not does Ghost support Drafts.

    However, instead of telling you how to use their API, they tell you it’s more important to publish quality content. That’s concerning... https://ghost.org/resources/setting-up-apps-and-integrations/#custom-integrations

    maique,
    @maique@social.lol avatar

    @nicolas Thanks. That’s what I wanted to say, in fact.

    I guess I’m reading this next:

    @maique Ghost doesn’t have draft support?

    maique,
    @maique@social.lol avatar

    @habibcham I mean Drafts, the app. Can’t find a way to publish to Ghost via Drafts. Deal breaker for me.

    habibcham,
    @habibcham@mastodon.social avatar

    @maique Oh that Drafts! 🤓

    Well that’s a showstopper right there.

    maique,
    @maique@social.lol avatar

    @habibcham It is, yes 😔

    @alexandra Too early for that, I’m afraid. First steps only.
