Fabs @mecha-fabs.bsky.social · 24/08/2026In the last weeks I decided to start a DevBlog. I am surprised how expensive the internet got in the last decade, hosting a blog and an email used to be cheap (am I misremembering it?). Anyway, I ended up hosting it as a GitHub page. Second gripe, why is GitHub so confusing? 320

Fabs @mecha-fabs.bsky.social · 24/08/2026It is an interesting setup. The full page code needs to be public (repository requirement), all posts are files (no databases), you don't run dynamic feature like PHP so forms, comments, etc. need to be external services. For contact form I am leveraging GoogleForms, for comments giscus.app ...giscus.appgiscusA comments widget built on GitHub Discussions. 110
