The thing that I find missing from most new blogging software, which includes even not-so-new ones like Ghost, is decent Archives navigation. I want to see per-year, per-month, per-tag, per-category nav. I came up in Wordpress and it is the only thing WP still does better than everyone by default.

Making a Ghost Blog a Valid standard.site Publication
This blog federates over ActivityPub through Ghost so Mastodon users can follow @index@subaud.io. standard.site is the counterpart for the AT Protocol side: a set of lexicons that describe a blog as records in an atproto repo, the same identity and data layer behind a Bluesky account. Anything

OnionHome OnionPress
Full blogging platform. Any theme. Any plugin. A familiar dashboard you already know how to use.
I built a directory explorer for @standard.site publications and documents. You can search for your favourite publications, view statistics about publications and documents, filter by tags, and has a graph view showing subscriptions and recommendations! It's been a lot of fun building, check it out:
con.vey.dev | the standard.site directory
con.vey.devBack into blogging and just published something I've been thinking about for a while now – making archival content more resilient and discoverable on atproto. Oral history, interactive transcripts, content addressing, and keeping important stories from being quietly erased. maboa.it/resilient-archives-on-the-at-…
Keeping Archives Alive: Resilience and Discovery on ATProto
maboa.itHad fun adding support for @standard.site to my blog. The richer preview card on #bsky looks neat. Another benefit is, since all the entries now live in the #ATmosphere, all kinds of #ATProto apps can index and display them. See pckt example: pckt.blog/read?search=rednafi rednafi.com/misc/standard-site/
Putting this blog on ATProto with standard.site
rednafi.comOne thing I look for in a blogging platform (whether atproto or otherwise): a way of backing up/exporting my content. This is more important to me than being able to tweak design/fonts etc. Have learned this from hard experience; I've used manymany blogging platforms over the decades.
made a map of all standard.site blogs! pub-search.waow.tech/atlas
This is cool, like a mix of blog / digital garden / link log… strikes me that this kind of thing would be *really* good on atproto! Could be a single doc (like a @leaflet.pub looseleaf) & e.g. a new subpage each week, embed links or @semble.so collections, ppl can comment, re-share when updated…

I just published my weekly reflections: docs.google.com/document/d/1xRiCqpy3LMAgEsHdX… Safe as paintball. Infinite focus. Context rot. The betrayal of dumb tools becoming smart. Builders vs coders. Fossilized data. Reclaiming your data. Cooperation as transcendence. The candid aim test. Social alchemy.
