Why? Genuinely asking. Did you mean because there are free alternatives to self-host? I don't think that it would be so easy for someone in the market for a WYSIWYG blog builder to set everything up themselves.
Exactly. Because of the abundance of the one-click deploy WordPress offerings from value providers like OVH / Hetzner I would think margins are very low for WYSIWYG site builders.
I too am in the wilderness and Starlink is my only broadband, but I was smart enough to keep my 1.5Mbps WISP connection (radio mounted 170' up one of my redwoods) so I'm still in good shape for basic communication, even some streaming and videoconferencing, though those aren't great this morning.
Also, after my Starlink terminal rebooted a few times on its own over the last hour or so, things are looking good again.
If it 1,5 Mb and radio mount on a tower I would more guessing toward the side of PTP line of sight Link or such Mikrotik, Unifi instead of cellular cradlepoint.
Ubiquiti, Cambium, probably not Tarana because that's way too expensive for a 1.5Mbps sub. Mikrotik radios are fairly rare here, but the routers and switches are everywhere.
Thats interesting ! Mikrotik routers and switches are very cheap, I wonder why they one product line is extremely common but the radios are rare rather than roughly equivalent spread ?
Mikrotik has not (yet?) gone down the path of shipping sector radios supporting massive MIMO (Multiple Input Multiple Output -- an 8x8 array can deliver 8 times as much data as 1 stream within the same channel size) as vendors like Cambium have. The additional capacity on tower sectors from additional streams combined with MU-MIMO (Multi-User MIMO that transmits to multiple subscriber radios at the same time based on the number of streams the transmitter supports combined with client radios that are typically 2x2) is a great way to gain capacity where spectrum is exhausted. Higher order QAM support like the new 12 bits per symbol modulation in 802.11be tends not to be so useful for WISPs as getting the SNR to the level required to support it tends to be is challenging, especially in 6 GHz spectrum where transmit power limitations require much higher gain antennas for client radios (at least here in Canada where EIRP is limited to 36dBm).
Mikrotik is still quite heavily used for their routers and switches among WISPs. They are the most affordable vendor for 100Gbps switches. Pity we don't have a better open source software stack for their hardware.
Ubiquiti is also actively neglecting the WISP market. Anything that isn't UniFi seems to be mostly abandoned these days.
Just generally not as reliable or as advanced as the competition for not much more, generally. They are doing some interesting work with LTE in Latvia though.
Digression ... you must be using "wilderness" in it's colloquial form, because technically, if he's in a cabin he can't be in wilderness. Federally designated wilderness areas don't allow permanent human habitation.
Furthermore, the planet we are on cannot possibly be in space. Space is mostly empty, has no breathable atmosphere, there are no trees or grocery stores there, etc.; Earth is quite the opposite.
People are understandably fascinated by it, and trying to learn to figure out what’s being created by AI and what’s not. The commenter is right about this example, you could certainly vibe code an app like this.
