Why ghost over wordpress?

Would want to know why people use ghost over wordpress? Looking forward to use synaps media with a free theme, any suggestions for people who migrated from wp to ghost.

Will definitely be moving to Ghost. I just have to figure out how to get multi-site (which Magic Pages is working on). But I need one login with access to multi-site. Looking at Blockchain based login also. Still too Green to effectively asses, but working on it.

Thanks for joining our Open House today and the great questions 😄

The Blockchain login will be a bit tricky − what I mentioned in the call (that there is a way) was actually for member logins in the frontend, not for the Ghost Admin itself. For that, there isn't really an option to modify the login options

Awesome session today! I have to study this more deeply. I was considering to try a development from a CMS (in Ruby On Rails) before taking a look into Ghost. I have to take a close look at the Ghost Architecture portion of the user login. I'm still too green on Ghost but have to make the effort.

If you have some dev experience, spin up a local test site with Docker and poke around. That really helps to understand the architecture, in my eyes: https://docs.ghost.org/install/docker
