When I researched and tested some, I found the Presonus Eris E3.5 to be the best bang for the buck. The other close one was Mackie CR3, but the Presonus is better.

Hmm, I watched the Oxygen video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7yae8GvpPVo where they build a webpage and it doesn’t seem weird to me. As a Squarespace user, it seems more familiar to me than the Gutenberg editor. For example, setting the spacing of two side-by-side elements with Gutenberg seemed really strange. They were spaced really far apart without an obvious way to reduce the spacing.

Interesting! That looks like a completely free version of Elementor Pro. It looks like it’s not on the official Wordpress plugins site https://wordpress.org/plugins/search/PRO+Elements/ though. I read that makes it more risky.
Yeah, that’s similar to my conclusions as well. What would you recommend?
I’m not sure what you even want “static gen” for?
Speed, security, free hosting.
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.
I don’t know what you’re doing and what you’re really asking.
It doesn’t sound like you read the OP.
You want a static site? Hugo or jekyll.
As I said, I was unable to find a theme that has all the design features of a builder like Squarespace. So to make a professional website with an SSG seems to require coding knowledge.
There are options for contact forms but it will require additional setup.
Yes, I mentioned that. Many of them are limited or costly:
Some of them use Netlify forms https://www.netlify.com/platform/core/forms/ - 100 submissions per site /month ($19+ when exceeded). https://docs.netlify.com/accounts-and-billing/billing-faq/
Hugo’s Piko theme uses FormSubmit.io (free) or Fabform.io ($5/mo). But I haven’t tested that to understand how well it works and why/how it’s free.
Hugo’s Tella theme uses getform.io – https://github.com/opera7133/tella/issues/63 (50/mo).
250/mo for free and $8/mo for unlimited with https://web3forms.com/ is the best I’ve seen so far (besides the completely free one which I’m not sure about).
I haven’t seen any of them mention using an SMTP.
Yep, that’s why I listed it separately. I used a script for highlighting comments on reddit: https://archive.fo/kgsfz
Perhaps it would be simple enough to modify it to work on lemmy.
EDIT: Saidit has it built-in.
I moved to my own forum because the alternatives are:
For #2, Lemmy isn’t polished enough, so I went with a traditional forum option that’s been around for a while.
For me, it needs features from RES, Toolbox, highlight new comments, etc.
I ran into a similar problem with snapshots of a forum and email server – if there are scheduled emails when you take the snapshot they get sent out again if you create a new test server from the snapshot. And similarly for the forum.
I’m not sure what the solution is either. The emails are sent via an SMTP so it’s not as simple as disabling email (ports, firewall, etc.) on the new test server.
