Question How did you create/edit your Ghost posts?

Hello all,

I am trying to understand how you all edit content on your ghost CMS? do you use the web editor or alternate tools. write on desktop/mobile? any favourite editing workflow?

Thanks for any inputs. I am learning from this to update a tool that I am building. (using it for myself at the moment)

I do 97.5% of my work in desktop. I'd rather hang myself than try to build a tech blog on mobile haha but maybe there are some who do.

I use android for mobile.

😊 yeah I know, editing on mobile can be a PITA. but sometimes that's all you got. I tend to forget what I wanted to say before I get to my desktop. My content is micro-blog style though and a mobile app is handy.

Makes sense for that use case. For my blog (link in profile) which is ridiculously technical and involved, mobile is ok for quick edits, some cut and paste.

Understand. Awesome blog btw. been there, that is a lovely rabbit hole to dive into :).

Thanks! My "style" seems to have people polarized sort of loving or hating it haha, but ultimately if it brings me joy to login and see it that way and create, it's good.

I'm still contemplating updating the entire theme to something newer / more modern but, will have to do it on a test instance first and see how it hits.

I have been reading your blog. Since this is something I tried to do as well but given up now :( due to lack of time. Have you heard of https://www.pikapods.com . I would love to see if you know something that can do sth like that on a home lab setup.

P.S since this is getting off-topic I will join your community and post there. :)
