Oh, at least here in Brazil, people still find it strange if you say you don't have an Instagram account. There's this idea of being a bit weird for not following this trend.

There's an app called Wappler that was developed by the same folks from DMXzone, which was quite well-known for its Dreamweaver add-ons at the time. It's the closer you will find of a direct successor.

Sometimes, meaning (which is heavily connected to the way people feel) is all that makes people survive. Ask Viktor Frankl.

Twitter/X had a hard time in Brazil recently and was temporarily banned. Meta is now feeling more intense pushback from Brazil's judiciary power.

The power of WordPress lies in its community, branding, and marketplace. The options you mentioned simply don't compete in these areas.

The problem is that right now the pathways to quickly bootstrap a WordPress site with a good enough, customized theme are hidden under SaaS providers, like hosting companies. Use InstaWP or ZipWP, for example, and you can start in just minu

This is great as it is, but I would love to see support for posts in plain HTML. There's a huge potential for static sites generated by Webflow and other platforms like it. Hosting costs are the biggest issue with these platforms. It w

Bricks Builder on the WordPress side is really interesting for this.

Logseq, which is a note-taking app much like Obsidian, can also generate a static site from its notes natively. It has a mobile app, which is very helpful when you are on the move. It is quite idiosyncratic, but it works well if you know yo

Downloading and using fonts available on Fontesk can be a huge trap. Read it's “Licensing” page. It's simply not safe to use fonts downloaded there, one should really use it only for discovery, at best.

Need to get the intrinsic design approach right first, that's lot to cover.

Have you seen Publii? It seems to be a solution somewhat similar to the one you described. It's quite limited compared to WordPress, which can be a good thing.

Of course, ChatGPT can only respond about things already created, it cannot create new things. This would be AGI territory.
