Of course, as is appropriate, my prediction is far from true, and after a number of years Ghost seems more dead than alive, the original article was dated August 21, 2014 when it appeared on Simmessa.com, yet, in 2025 I feel like the "omen" is actually becoming a lot closer to reality...
I'm writing this post from the bed of a mountain attic. I don't feel no remorse. I don't need an app, just a smartphone browser. Of course my knowledge of markdown is quite limited at the moment, so I don't expect this to become my greatest looking post to date.
The incredible thing is to be able to do it with this ease, while totally on the loose.
No options, write > save > publish unfortunately I would like so many things to be automatic, like publicize with autopost on twitter and facebook. But it's too early, and they say that those who are satisfied enjoy a lot more.
I think ghost can be the right platform to bridge between traditional blogging and microblogging.
The ease of use certainly plays in its favor, I guess we will be seeing in the coming years.
Sorry about the non-technical post, it's not easy to write markdown from a mountain attic :)
See you soon.
A Note from future self: Ghost is soooo dead, over the years I switched this blog over to Gatsby, which was acquired by Netlify in 2023, therefore declared dead in its own regard...So in 2025 I finally switched to Pelican, which is based on Python rather than NodeJS, and that's for the better. I will let you know if this is meant to last more than a few years...
