I know you like Ghost CMS, the best open-source publishing software for independent content creators. I have a good news for you:

I built a very fast yet very affordable fully managed Ghost hosting service, synapsmedia.com Give it a try, its free for 14 days!
Synaps Media
Start your website in minutes with the power of Ghost CMS
synapsmedia.com
Self-hosting is great as a hobby. But if your goal is to publish, not maintain servers, there’s no reason to run your own blog.

Thanks to Synaps Media clients, I learned about many anonymous email services. I was surprised and glad to see how widely they’re used. I have a very conscious customer base. 😊

I'm very content to provide hosted DNS server for Synaps Media customers. It increases the overall performance and experience a lot. By improving it more in time, I think it will be an important part of the service.

Junior: Just laptop
Mid: 1 external
Senior: 1 curved + 2 flat
Architect: Nothing but the displays on the desk
How many displays are enough to be a good developer?
I think everyone knows that you are not senior enough if you have less than 3 displays on your desk, right?

I always wanted to use my own blog for micro blogging as well in addition to long-form posts. Ghost's latest Social Web is a step forward to reach that point. And here a simple component that I made to embed your notes to your website. muratcorlu.com/adding-ghost...
Adding Ghost Social Web notes to your website
Starting from Ghost 6, we have "Notes" in addition to posts. Here is a way to show them in your website for public visitors

Don't [...spread] or .split() your strings!

Use Intl.Segmenter API. Available in every JS runtime

Status pages everywhere show green, because Statuspage.io is ALSO down: customers cannot log in to update their status page and indicate the outage their eng teams know about!!

So a fail for Statuspage to depend on an AWS region... or DynamoDB (that seems to depend one AWS region?)

i think migrating away from Vercel hosting is a solid idea. i moved my Next.js blog to Cloudflare (for free) and have been very happy with that

with Next.js 16+ committing to deployment adapters (and Vercel adapter using the same API), we should hold their feet to the fire on the ease of migration

I don't use Vercel but had an account from years ago for my side projects. It's a nice day to cleanup the things.

Great to hear happy customer stories. A nice article about moving to Ghost with @synapsmedia.com. 😊

Did you know that on macOS, you can update just to Safari 26, while remaining on macOS 15 Sequoia or even macOS 14 Sonoma?

Go to  > System Settings > General > Software Update. Under “Also Available” you’ll find Safari listed. Click “Update Now”.

The feature I was waiting for since years arrived DuckDuckGo: Blocking sites from search results. This will give extra peace of mind to my life for sure!

Bir çok Avrupa ülkesinin gündeminde Gazze'deki insani durum var. Bunu gündemde tutan da artık düzenli hale gelen protestolar. Türk haber sitelerine baktığımda ise Türkiye'den hiç bir protesto haberi göremiyorum. Gerçekten kimsenin umurunda olmadığı için mi, yoksa medya mı görmezden geliyor?
