  • Instead of setting up one nginx for multiple sites you run one nginx per site and have the settings for that as part of the site repository.

    Doesn’t that require a lot of resources since you’re running (mysql, nginx, etc.) numerous times (once for each container), instead of once globally?

    Or, per your comment below:

    Since the base image is static, and config is per container, one image can be used to run multiple containers. So if you have a postgres image, you can run many containers on that image. And specify different config for each instance.

    You’d only have two instances of postgres, for example, one for all docker containers and one global/server-wide? Still, that doubles the resources used no?






  • Thanks for your input.

    wordpress.com’s hosting is pretty affordable.

    It’s more expensive than Squarespace which is a main reason I chose Squarespace in the first place. I created a test site today to experiment with Wordpress and it seems that Wordpress has as much or more functionality than Squarespace, but much of it is hidden behind 3rd party addons, which may or may not be free. And you basically have to look up articles for “how to do x on Wordpress”, whereas with Squarespace it’s build-in and easier to accomplish.

    So I think for people starting out, Wordpress is harder to use since you don’t even know what it’s capable of.

    Divi is more expensive than Oxygen, so if I use something other than Gutenberg it will probably be Oxygen.
