Postleaf – Open source blogging platform

In plain words

Postleaf is an open source blogging platform launched in 2016. It enables users to create and manage blog content with a self-hosted solution. The platform is designed for developers and bloggers who prefer to control their own infrastructure rather than rely on third-party services. Its open source nature allows for customization and community contributions, making it suitable for those seeking transparency and flexibility in their blogging tools.

  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.

  Hi 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. It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself.
