#2How long will they be around? I'm kinda sick of putting up a page about some random thing then a couple of years later its gone.

I'm really looking forward to this kind of problem being solved by ipfs/dat

#5Pretty nice. I'm still in the market for a good lander builder.
initial feedback:
- I can't figure out how to change the image in a template, close to giving up
- more templates please
- and maybe more content in the templates (easier fill in or delete content than to figure out how to add new sections and content)
- I didn't read site that closely (who does), do I get the generated html etc? I'd like to host myself
- the "pick a palette" is great

How would it solve the problem?
Well, since it's distributed / decentralized you wouldn't depend on a particular company (or service). This way you wouldn't need to worry about it being shut down.

Can't speak for Dat, but for IPFS, your content is alive so long as at least one node has the site pinned. (Think of it like seeders for a torrent)

You would still depend on the constant availability of an origin for your data.
IPFS is not magic in that regard: if whoever is your origin disappears, then your data is likely to disappear at some point, especially if it's not super popular.
There is no free lunch: you either become your origin yourself, or you pay someone else to be.

#9What browsers are you supporting and testing against, both for the editor and its output? For example, the text widget doesn't allow spaces to be typed on Firefox, which makes me wonder about the compatibility of the generated code.
Edit: Also, kudos for having such easy, frictionless access to the demo. I also really like the structural parity between the desktop and mobile versions.
Edit2: How are you picking which version (desktop/mobile) to show? Are you doing some kind of sniffing, rather than relying on media queries? I'm not getting the version I expect when I change the viewport's size in my DevTools: Chrome always gives me the mobile version in responsive mode, while Firefox always gives me the desktop layout unless I spoof a device's user agent string...

But because it's distributed, you can be the origin for hundreds of pages on a tiny $5 vps and when popularity increases you would not have to shoulder all the load.
