• Modern WordPress – Yikes

  Checkout https://textpattern.com/ - its development started around the same time as WordPress, and still continues. Even though it didn't reach Wordpress' success, I've always felt that TextPattern is better coded than WordPress. - Source: Hacker News / about 2 months ago

• Ask HN: For static HTML, what is your go to template?

  Depends on the need...I have a quick LibreOffice HTML template in light or dark. I include metas for mobile use in the document properties. I also have a PHP controller that can easily modify these if I need it to be more dynamic. Otherwise I use https://picocss.com/ for some things. For publishing I either drop the HTML file in a folder with or without a controller, or start a new endpoint by creating a new... - Source: Hacker News / over 2 years ago

• Textile Markup Language

  Textile was the driving markup behind Textpattern (https://textpattern.com/), one of the better publishing/CMS tools out there on PHP. It had a nice object oriented approach that was less painful than Wordpress, and gave great flexibility to design aspects in ways that were easier to work with than Wordpress... But Wordpress won the popular marketshare, and TP was relegated to some diehards. Those diehards still... - Source: Hacker News / over 2 years ago

• WordPress is 18

  Wordpress made a great impact on the net, and I was happy when clients liked its ease of use and relieved from the burden of making content changes. (Though, I've always felt that https://textpattern.com/ was more secure and better than Wordpress). - Source: Hacker News / about 3 years ago

• Ask HN: Why is HN not categorizing submitted items?

  I think they'd rather have one community rather than multiple communities oriented around different subjects. (See Reddit) I have been thinking about making a classification model for "things that might be posted to Hacker News" and was thinking about training it on https://tildes.net/. - Source: Hacker News / 6 months ago

• Ask HN: How to get invites when your network is small?

  Https://tildes.net/ It was mentioned in recent HN thread on other websites that people who read HN like. But I do mean my question more broadly, not just about this particular website. - Source: Hacker News / 8 months ago

• Ask HN: On improving the quality of submissions (on the top/front page)

  I don’t think comments make a story more visible on HN, it’s not like https://tildes.net/ My belief actually is that visibility of posts is suppressed if they get, say, 20 comments and already have 50 votes. So if you want to be systematic about posting comments with some “tough love” go right ahead. - Source: Hacker News / 9 months ago

• I'm a microbiologist and here's what (and where) I never eat

  People on Tildes thought the author of that article was a lunatic https://tildes.net/~food/1b92/im_a_microbiologist_and_here_is_what_and_where_i_never_eat. - Source: Hacker News / 9 months ago

• Sites like HN on other topics?

  I really like Tildes https://tildes.net/ which is less focused, more about everything (god I wish I could frontpage an article about sports on HN) but has a much higher ratio of discussions to links (e.g. Ask HN is a joke) I have invites. - Source: Hacker News / 10 months ago
