Ask HN: What are you using for public documentation these days?
Background: I've been a technical writer for 9 years. 6 at Google, 3 as the only writer at an IoT startup.
I helped Corrily with their docs [1] in August. They were interested in readme.io. I wasn't keen on it because I had worked with Retool a few years back and had found readme.io lacking. But I was pleasantly surprised by how much readme.io has progressed since then! If you're looking for a documentation product that is very easy to update and mostly just works, then it's worth checking out.
On https://web.dev I was introduced to Eleventy. Eleventy [2] is now my go to. The documentation for Elecenty itself is very strangely organized and needs a refactor. But I have found that there is always a way to accomplish whatever I need, and usually elegantly.
Another project worth checking out is Docsy [3]. This is a Jekyll template specifically created for technical documentation.
Back at the IoT startup I had to set up the whole documentation system / tooling myself. I used Sphinx and deployed to Heroku. Haven't used Sphinx since then but I remember being satisfied with it back then.

Need help
I haven't used either of these, but I've heard good things about both https://github.com/google/docsy and https://thegooddocsproject.dev/. If you choose to use either of these, I'd love to hear about it. I have coworkers who contribute to both of them.

The Open Source Sustainability Crisis
https://squidfunk.github.io/mkdocs-material/
I'm an 'outsider', but from from the outside the Material For MkDocs Project looks like a very well managed open source project.
Martin Donath's project uses a 'sponsorware' release strategy to generate donations.
From my vantage point it seems to be working pretty well.

Ask HN: What's the best place to start a newsletter?
I just recently went through this decision process. My aim is to write code and math oriented posts so I need good support for nice syntax highlighting (at least colored) and mathjax (preferable) or katex. Substack is the most popular newsletter platform but fails at these two criteria. I love how math and syntax highlighting (plus numerous other features) work in MkDocs Material, which recently added a Blog plugin.
I wanted to combine the best of both: Substack as an amazing email social network, and MkDocs Material’s awesome look. So I’ve gone with using Substack as the core platform which I use to manage subscribers, and use it to post either math/code-free posts or a short teasers pointing to my main blog site on MkDocs Material when I need to show math/code

Changing CMS from Wordpress to ?
I've been migrating content to MKDocs (Material) over the last few months, so feel fairly qualified on this subject. It's somewhat limited in terms of navigation, but can probably handle 400-500 pages; you can see how navigation works in the link. Otherwise, it can handle most, if not all, the tasks you've listed.
