Oracolo big update! You know, Oracolo lets you create a personal blog using your Nostr content, and now is more powerful! Freely organize your articles, notes and images in "blocks", with different styles, and pin your favorites, too! You can do this with a handy web wizard, no coding is required. As usual, the blog is just a single HTML file, so you can host it everywhere. But there is another great news, from a @fiatjaf's smart idea: you can also take advantage of Oracolo web service to host your blog. Just point your DNS to the generated auto-config domain, and your blog is live. It's free, too!

I'm having a hard time posting images that resolve in Oracolo. I'm posting with Amethyst on Android and they are posting as posts instead, and no image is resolving. I love the idea. I'd love to use this software as my main blog, if these issues get resolved.
Somehow you look to me like a guy at a ball game eating a wiener with mustard and ketchup... some kind of classic American look that I can't put my finger on any other way.
Oracolo supports kind:20 "olas" images. If you want a pictures feed, this is what you should use. You can post them with Amethyst from the central tab. I know it's a pain for who is used to use kind:1 notes for images, but I cannot see any other robust solutions in the long term. PS: @Vitor Pamplona I think many users are not using kind:20 because it has a smaller reach; maybe including it somehow on the main feed, and move also the post option, could help the transaction.
Yes, you can actually configure it for another user and thus have a personalized "newspaper" about him.

Sorry, nothing about the code. I just mean I am unable to write more than 140 string long note not mention writing a blog😅
Hahaha I got it. But with Oracolo you can have also a blog with just short notes, an maybe pictures.

Wow thanks for checking in. Three things are a little odd, 1) the home page doesn’t load anything on the land (I thought it would load the most recent 6 articles and 6 images (or the most recent with the two chosen tags) from a user perspective), 2) images don’t load on articles (I think this might be because highlighter accepts two ways to designate an image on an article, I chose the way that works for primal), and 3) while images load when using the image/note type designation once you click on them, they don’t work in the “preview” when all 6 are loaded on the page, you can just see the link to the image in text. Thanks! http://npub1f48mtlc2lwxqfekxuql4z2qmvezhd7v9uk7rfga8accs585zrars56lpgj.ba-6-grid.bi-6-grid.topics-ew0k-graffiti.oracolo.me/
The maximum length for a subdomain is typically 63 characters, with the topics- part you used 68 chars and this broke everything. There is not a easy solution here, at most I can recover 4 chars shortening "topics" to "t".
Oh also 4) when you click ew*k hash you should see 6 article links but only see 1 and have to refresh to see the full 6
Opening that URL I can see 6 articles in the homepage. Same if I click #ew0k. I will check the image problem, I see you use the markdown sintax, so probably it's a but with the parser. Images inside the content don't appear in the preview, you have to use a "banner" image for the articles.

Pay attention that you are using a broken <img /> code in some articles. You should use the classic markdown syntax or the plain image url.
