Markbin
I write a lot in Markdown. Notes, ideas, drafts, half-finished thoughts, lots of code. Lots and lots of code. One thing that has always annoyed me is there's nowhere to just slap a .md file, share it, and have it look pretty. Most platforms either try to turn writing into a social network, a CMS, or some AI something or other. Sometimes you just want to take a Markdown file and put it on the internet without ceremony. The paid plans have a couple of features like encryption at rest, password protection, launch and expiry dates, etc. It's probably got a few bugs, so let me know what you think…

Talanoa▲346Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client.

With social media and now AI, its important to keep the indie web alive. There are many people who write frequently. Blogosphere tries to highlight them by fetching the recent posts from personal blogs across many categories. There are two versions: Minimal (HN-inspired, fast, static): https://text.blogosphere.app/ Non-minimal: https://blogosphere.app/ If you don't find your blog (or your favorite ones), please add them. I will review and approve it.
