I agree with others, the homepage _looks_ awesome, but it could use at least a tiny bit more info, links to existing blogs, something. Might just be me, but I didn't assume the get started link would take me to an editor, and I wasn't ready to go through a signup workflow. Might help to make that a little more obvious ("go to the editor").

Editor also looks pleasant. Reminds me quite a bit of Telegraph (https://telegra.ph/)



"a tiny bit more info"

that is... maybe overly polite.

It needs info. It needs LOTS of info. "a tiny bit more info" is not helpful when there is no info to begin with.

"minimalist blogging platform" tells me ONLY that there will be a blog produced at the end of my endeavors. The site itself doesn't even say minimalist. It says "extremely simple". Is it a static blog? Is it a dynamic blog? Does it use Markdown? Does it use a WYSYWYG editor? Does it even HAVE an editor? Does it have themes? Is it even themable? Can i get my data out of it? can I have my own domain? If I don't want to use my domain, what are my domain options. Is any part of it configurable? Is it open source? Is it minimalist, or is it simple, or is it both?

No-one should sign up for blogging platform soley because someone claimed, without any supporting evidence, that it's "extremely simple"


Thank you! :)

And agreed, will add a Demo blog shortly + Update the button text!
