What is Ghost?

Yet another site or project where you read endless paragraphs that talk abstractly about ideas and concepts instead of just showcasing what the delivered product/app actually is or looks like. Drives me up the goddamn wall sometimes. Why should I be interested, you know what I'm saying?

Edit: alright guys, every person doesn't have to reply saying what it is. I'm not actually interested anymore. My point was to whine about how it wasn't clear from their home page. 👍 When I realized it was too hard to figure out what this is, I lost interest.

Ghost is a powerful app for professional publishers to create, share, and grow a business around their content. It comes with modern tools to build a website, publish content, send newsletters & offer paid subscriptions to members.

For me, this first paragraph from the site says clearly that they are a tool to build sites and sell content.

It needs a show case, to show me what it can do! Like, what is the output? Does it spit out a React project? Does it post directly to a hosted CMS type service? What!

There's just too much of what we in Sweden would call "word shitting". Lots and lots of words that say fuck all.

“word shitting”. Lots and lots of words that say fuck all.

This is a great way to describe LLM-based AIs. I'ma use it.
