What it does

tumblelog is a static microblog and microsite generator. It creates all HTML5 files and both a JSON feed and RSS feed from a single input file that consists of entries written in the CommonMark Markdown dialect. From version 5.0.0 on tags are supported as well. tumblelog is Open Source and there is a Perl and a Python version available.

    Dear reader, Just over a year ago I started on a static blog generator. First in Perl, but soon I wrote a Python version as well and kept developing both versions in parallel. I have been using this program to generate my own tumblelog, https://plurrrr.com/, which has been up and running for over a year with daily posts (please check it out).

    Hello HN, Over the last year we've been building ente[1], a privacy-friendly, easy-to-use alternative to Google Photos. We've so far built Android[2][3], iOS[4], web[5] apps that encrypt your files and back them up in the background. You can access these across your devices, and share them with other ente users, end-to-end encrypted. You can also use our electron app[6] to maintain a local copy of your backed up files. We've built a fault-tolerant data replication layer that replicates your data to two different storage providers in the EU. We will be providing additional replicas as an…
