    Faircamp is great for this for music - I wonder if it could be pretty easily adapted for art, too.

      Is there not federated WordPress?

      You can always make it manually with notepad(++).

        The answer is probably "no", but.... Any interest in rolling your own? I once wrote a webcomic engine for a friend, and it was pretty trivial: a simple mod_perl script that grabbed a template and substituted a codeword with the picture the client requested.

        Nothing fancy and pretty lightweight. My friend uploaded any new comics via FTP and made some minor changes to the template from time to time. It did the job well.

        I can do badic html and css and thought of doing that way but it would look very early 2000. Besides not looking to code and do the artwork. Already do that for one website and its not pretty.

          I use Wordpress for mine. You might check out Substack. Which you can also use it to monetize your comic.

                An alternative to Wordpress would be my guess, since that was your question.

                  Yeah but then it wouldn't be on my website. And no thanks to WordPress they enshitfication and don't allow you to change the code. So fuck them. Also they destroy Comicpress best thing they had for webcomics.

                        Wordpress as a framework is kinda federated, you can host your own server if you want to.

                        You can look into wysiwyg website editors, self hosting a website with aws and s3 is wicked cheap, and other providers like netlify are also inexpensive to a lesser degree.

                                I will look into that. Thanks. And WordPress doesn't let you tinker with the base code like they used to.

                                        SSGs are not related to AI and have been a thing for a long time. You won't see anything about AI in the wiki article.
