More than one person has e-mailed me in the past few months asking why I switched away from Octopress—which I was initally so excited about!—to Ghost. Octopress, after all, has a lot of attractive qualities—it can live on Github (though I’ve never bothered with that functionality); you can write blog posts in vim; it uses static pages rather than requiring PHP or Node or something running behind the scenes to generate stuff.
After a year of semi-regular blogging with Octopress, though, I was just kind of…bored with it.
