Rationale
Bear Blog is a blogging platform that focuses on simplicity and speed, aligning with the core concept of an online publishing platform. It offers a rich text editor for creating posts, a 'Discovery feed' that acts as a distribution and recommendation engine, and features like 'upvotes' and 'comments' (implied by 'feedback' and 'suggestions' on the roadmap) for community engagement. The roadmap also indicates features like 'Feed analytics' which aligns with reader engagement metrics. User profiles and following are present, as well as tags and topics for content organization. Email newsletter integration is explicitly mentioned in the docs. While not explicitly stated as a dedicated mobile app, the claim 'Looks great on any device' suggests mobile responsiveness. Social sharing is implied by the nature of a blog, and search and discovery are available through the 'Discovery feed' and search functionality.
