How are historians recording and preserving the COVID-19 pandemic?
If you Google "COVID-19 digital archive" you can also find a range of projects with different focuses. A benefit of technology is that now many organizations can create their own Omeka site and build a collection to document events in real time. However, I hope the post above demonstrates that while anyone can, any historian utilizing these various resources need to consider the practices undertaken to gather digital archives. We would never enter a physical archive and look at paper documents without questioning why those survive, what's missing, and thinking about voices specifically left out. A digital collection is the same, however they present an abundance of sources that can distract or distort- approaching the surviving records of the Salem Witch Trials is different from approaching a collection of 40,000 personal accounts. What voices might not volunteer a personal account to a website if it requires identifying information? How many images of people in masks at the grocery store do we need to deliberately save? These are not substantially different questions from what past historians and archivists thought about, but technology does reframe discussion. We'll see how many of these projects were developed with sustainability in mind.

What to do with a large newspaper text archive
There are some great visual archives online that might serve as inspiration. Free tools to create them include Collection Builder, Omeka, and some other free, open source repository software. Most of their sites have links to projects that people have built using their tool, and I find them super inspiring to scroll through and get ideas for projects like yours.

Prismic.io is increasing our price by *1900%* over Christmas
I using Directus CMS on several projects with pretty complicated flows, api extensions etc. probably there will be some work if you move. I liked Directus is because it's standard SQL I can always move my DB and documents to another solution. I don't use their hosted solution but they have an unlimited offering for $100 / month.

Looking for a (primarily) WYSIWYG platform to build a MySQL interface.
Have you looked at Directus? Iβm not sure exactly what your needs are (sorry if Iβve misunderstood). I used it for my most recent project as the backend for data entry/queries/administration. It supports MySQL, but admins donβt need to know anything about SQL to do complex queries/filters/CSV exports from the Directus UI.
