Re:Ask HN: Why has nobody built a better Wordpress? by krapp on Wednesday July 01, 2015 @07:20PM (#9815912)
I wasn't talking about blogging specifically, but in general terms, having to use one for updating and deploying.

I could possibly imagine someone writing blog posts in markdown or plaintext and pushing them somewhere, but that would be the edgiest of edge cases, and even then a native app or web form would be more intuitive.

and that's why your suggestion of missing shell involvement is not that much of a great point in this context of Wordpress

I do all my deployments for all of my applications in a shell.

If I were actively writing a blog, it would be administered in the shell as well.

Surely the point was that the shell is unimportant for the vast majority of users, despite some HN missing its power.
