        What format are you looking for? Something like a comic layout?

          No I don't need a software for drawing. I mean for posting. Back in the day I had Comicpress with WordPress but I know that not an option anymore, and was looking for something not WordPress.

            Just a way to post my comics on my website and people can click through them. Like how Comicpress worked back in the day.

              Pixelfed is the Fediverse alternative to Instagram, it is for posting, not drawing.

                Pixelfed is like Mastodon but for images. It's an instagram replacement.

                    Hugo is nice if you want extensive customization and you’re okay fighting with Go code and templates, a little bit.

                      I think this is a good suggestion. As a single user, you could still theme it while also providing cross-posting of other artists you like. Additionally, your network would act as a "web ring" of sorts.

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

                              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.

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

                                    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.

                                          Look into the term static site generator.
