Just upgraded to Ghost v6

If you haven't see the changelog yet for Ghost v6.0, go check it out now! I'll be enabling the ActivityPub integration once I fully configured Caddy routing on Nest.

While I did a quick repull of the Ghost image for the Portainer-managed container in my meta stack (which to be migrated to the infra git repository soon), I forked the official-but-experimental Docker Compose setup repository, tweaked the Compose file to match my current setup and encrypt some secrets with dotenvx. (If you setting this on your own and don't have an existing MySQL database container to connect with using Docker networking magic, go read the documentation linked below.)

Preview our new batteries-included tools for self-hosting Ghost using Docker Compose.

After that migration work, we are so back. Going to publish the July and August 2025 Status Update soon before September 25 (or 26 depending on my school schedule). I am currently being cooked for midterms exam since it's "hell week" at STI College Meycauayan at the moment.
