Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.
The rules are simple:
- The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
- The comic must be a complete story.
- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
- Politeness.
- AI-generated comics aren't allowed.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

Traditional way is to just use a WordPress account, and then move onto a paid hosting service of you decide you like keeping up with your blog. No point in paying for something you don't use. Their ceo was a dick with open source stuff, but the website itself is still solid enough to be used to check if its a hobby you want to actually keep up with.
If you want to spend just as much time managing the blog as you do actually sharing things, a raspberry pi, Hugo, nginx, and a lot of time are also an option.
I personally use Porkbun for the .com and hostinger for the backend, and it's been great for the past couple years to host my own wordpress setup.
But actually, I think that makes me oldschool. The new kids are using neocities.
