Github pages, sure. But Github issues? How/why would you blog through that?

I've been doing it for a while (https://github.com/SSYGEN/blog) and it works fine. It has markdown support and a commenting system, which is basically everything I need. Although it has its limitations depending on what kind of blogging you're doing, so it doesn't work for everyone.

Using GH issues for a blog doesn't seem like it could really work for most people. While you can get comments and discussions which is cool, GH isn't a great way to read long form content IMO. Plus if you want any time of analytics how can you find views/reads/etc. On side note you're current tutorial looks very neat, I've never used LUA so I'm going to try and follow along.

That's brilliant.
