It might be for me. It may not be.

It is _definitely_ for me to try and find out.

I've been wanting a very simple, minimalistic platform to blog. I _thought_ the reason I've abandoned my wordpress blog is because I dislike how complex and advanced it is. I want the simplest thing ever.

Svbtle looked like that thing since it first came out. I'll find out soon enough.




I just tried to test out its technical aspects, here's what I found:

> I like it, but noticing a few problems so far. Can’t tab while writing markdown. No live preview for markdown (may or may not be a problem). No confirmation of saving changes if you close the tab/navigate away. Drag and drop to upload images works okay, but Cmd+V doesn’t.

> Fenced blocks don’t do syntax highlighting (for Go at least).

> Can’t see invisible whitespace.

> The rest is good.

> Also, I don't see a way to export your content, nor a way to delete your account.
