Does this fill a niche that pastebin and bearblog don't? (well designed, but I don't think there's a userbase)

I'm the userbase! I built it for myself and now I'm sharing it with the world. I doubt there is a huge market but even if a fee people find it useful that's good enough for me!

Fair point. Hope you had fun :)

In terms of simple blogs, I use https://bearblog.dev/ I think your project suits more simple static pages. The competitor is more Notion rather than blogs and static site generators. Nice work all the same. I think what's really missing is a minimal copy of something like google sites. I want to be able to create something like my website at http://illabundavillage.com.au but I want it to be faster, not tied to googl…

Sweet thanks for sharing

There is no connection between payment and the published page. No logs are kept either. It's open source if you want to host it yourself or audit the code

Can you provide a link to the source, please?

Creating a GitHub repo with one file titled “index.md” and publishing it to GitHub Pages creates a single-page site using relatively sane defaults. There's no maintenance involved whatsoever. You can add multiple pages as well by creating new .md files and publishing them.

Try telling my mom to do that or my friend who is a landscaper. Not everyone is technical. GitHub pages are also tied to your account.

Yeah but would I tell my mom to pay a dollar on this site? Would she trust it? Does she need a website or does an email/google doc satisfy her needs. What are the use cases for entirely anonymous sites that you have in mind?

I felt like you may have created solutions anticipating problems that may or may not happen.

How is this anonymous when your user is providing you their intimate payment information.

You may want to set up a different payment technique. Maybe a gofundme donation recipient.

Care to tell what features GitHub pages are missing?

Anonymity. Maybe I'm wrong but I thought it was only markdown which isn't ideal especially for no technical people.

Last time I tried, there is no verification other than and email link for Github accounts. I think you could make an account and publish with just a throwaway email.

I've done all the static site generators, I just don't post enough to justify the maintenance, if you do they're probably a better solution! As is, it's pretty basic but I want to add features that GitHub pages don't support
