It isn't ready for a "show HN". Global timeline is there for getting exposure. It looks intimidating now, but it shouldn't. Thanks for trying it!

Self-hosting and updating an entire web app is not very realistic these days, but exporting in a ready to deploy site is a feature I'm thinking about. It isn't implemented yet.

I don't want this to have a private mode, everything is public. You can't guarantee privacy these days. My target is more towards what Medium and Svtble are doing, than WordPress.

Ah, now I get it. That would be a nice feature.

Is there a preview functionality? If not, that would be an important feature.

That's true, but you can still give users a little privacy if you want to. I personally wouldn't want to write on that platform without a drafts/preview folder, but that might just be me.

Not sure if you're still interested in the project. But there's an update:

1. Export was implemented. You get a nice ZIP archive with all your .md documents.

2. Regarding preview/drafts — there's one draft which is saved locally on the user machine. You start writing and it's saved automatically.

3. There's a new modern design and profile activity.
