I was having a conversation over email with [Louie Mantia](https://lmnt.me) on the weekend about how to get more people writing on their own domain. He had [envisioned](https://lmnt.me/blog/sketchbook/punk.html) a combination RSS reader and publisher a while back which I thought looked so great (no surprise there). He thinks [hand-making your own website](https://lmnt.me/blog/why-by-hand.html) is the best way for people to publish themeselves on the web. He even wrote up an [awesome guide](https://lmnt.me/blog/how-to-make-a-damn-website.html) on how to do it for people with no prior experience. I think people should own their writing (as in files) and that wrigin should be on their own domain, but I don't think that should mean that people have to learn how to code and understand FTP. While I obviously think html is charming and a great, expressive, language, I know most people are intimidated by the thought of writing code, even it's just markup and CSS.

Most self-hosted publishing products have a fritcion problem when compared to writing on blogging products like Medium or X. For example, when I want to write a new post on this blog, I have to pull out my code editor, create a new Markdown file, write the post, and then push it to the repository. This is a lot of "not writing" when the goal is to write, not to mention that I have to know about Github and use `git` for it all to work.
