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
Care to tell what features GitHub pages are missing?

#43Missing ToS or anything about the company / service, a 100% deal breaker. > secret phrase in a safe location Smart stuff with the secret phrase, but i'm afraid the security in the number of words there is just not sufficient for any practical safety. > Very rarely do you need to update a page once it's been posted so we punted on that feature for now LOL seriously?? Maybe you're a more sure shot than I am but i even…
It's a project I did in 9 days, it's not perfect or done. ;) Practical safety? It's a single page not a bank account. It's odd you would jump to that conclusion without know the dictionary. You don't think 5^1000 is secure enough for a single page? If you edit your pages, use a blog. This service isn't for the person that wants mutable pages. Different strokes my friend

#44I might be wrong, but I feel that if you're aiming to make money with this, you have three markets:
1. People who just want to put their own stuff on the internet, potentially/hopefully anonymously, but are not making any money from it. In this case it might be better to have free pages with ads (and write a small script that would try to catch phishing/spam — in my experience, the words "PDF" and "Microsoft Office" have been catching 95% so far).
2. People who actually use it for their business needs (one-page portfolios, business proposals, inventory lists, whatever) — then you need custom domains and possibly accounts but I dunno.
3. People who are doing dangerous things. This applies to drug dealers as much as it does to political dissidents. Then you probably need cryptocurrency payments.
Regardless of what you do, I suggest you create some kind of a public discussion forum (FB group, Discord server) for this project. You can do it right now, and you'll likely learn a lot about what your users want and how they are actually using your product.
At any rate, best of luck. I think it's a good idea and I'd like to have more projects in this space (as someone who wants to start new projects all the time and hates small obstacles).

#45A good free alternative is Telegram's Telegraph service: https://telegra.ph
Didn’t they just release logs and ip addresses of users in India?
Besides, telegram has a massive userbase, which makes them a lucrative target for law enforcement.

I think you meant 1000^5?
As long as the system to delete isn't fast, or has a max-tries-delay mechanism, it should be fine.

At this point I feel the need to bring up Etherpad which is essentially an encrypted Google Docs alternative but can be used similarly. Ofc there's also Notion which is in a similar vein.
You know, the more I think about this problem the more saddened I am by the state of social media. You can't share a FB or Instagram post without forcing people to sign in or make an account. Twitter is one of the last ones that allow their content to be freely shared but the char limit is a pretty significant limit and even that has popups
It seems that the problem of "how do I make a quick and simple static site to share with anyone with internet access" isn't really a hard problem. Instead all these major social networking services have worked their ass off to make sure their platforms can't be used in that way

#49How is this anonymous when your user is providing you their intimate payment information.
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
I highly recommend BTCPayServer for handling (non-custodial) crypto payments.
