Would love some advice and recommendations for this one:

For a non-developer looking to create a site with a paid subscribers area that allows members to access premium content, what's the best overall option?

(Follow-up: will it allow payment through Stripe such that customer information and subscriptions can be migrated away gracefully?)

@searls I recommend Ghost Pro. It uses Stripe for payments and your subscriber data is just a click away.

@searls I’ve heard good things about webflow + memberstack

@searls 👋 podia.com — we use your Stripe account so all your customer’s payment information is stored there.

I can't say it would be trivial to migrate away and keep payments, or import them elsewhere, but it would be theoretically possible with the Stripe API. Easier than most platforms which act as a middleman though

@searls Ghost is a great option for this.

@searls Squarespace I *think* offers something like this, and for non-devs it’s really user friendly. Pattern would also work, but it’s not really a customizable site that you own, so sorta depends on the use case.
