What's the difference between midnight pub and smol pub ?

I'de like to start a miniblog and I'd like to use one the two. But what's the difference between the two ?

Smol.pub seems to have more tech and others languages speakers, which is good, as my blog will be in french.

Midnight seems more like a pub roleplay.

oh good question! Midnight is an online message-board. A little like a forum. While smol.pub is a place to host a journal. I'll definitely suggest smol.pub for your blog. :)

Do you offer a service to host your own midnight? I want to add to nightfall city using my own domain, but allow people to sign up and post. Say, like medium, or a midnight specific to programming.

Also same exact question but for this AMAZING forum software? :-) This is all a dream.

I could see a system where one can make their own and it's authed against midnight, and then I could see a version where your room has it's own sign up. Both could be useful. One could request invite into an 'exclusive' pub, letting them post, but reading is for everyone. Or someone is invited to a 'secret' pub that you can't see the posts unless you're invited. blah blah blah sorry yagni etc i'll stop now

Thank you dsp, I appreciate that!

> Do you offer a service to host your own midnight?

The code of the midnight is free/open source, I'd definitely encourage anyone to run their own instance. :)

I'm glad you like it! The code is also free/open source, you can find out more here.

I love playing around with concepts like that. :) Would love to see this!
