Show HN: Kit55, a Desktop Web Builder GUI – Jekyll, Next, Wordpress Alternative
This somewhat reminds me of Lektor[0], which is a sort of front-end GUI application (really just website/page in front of a locally-run web server) that allows for folks to edit and post content as a static site generator and without needing a CLI. Lektor happens to be open source and based on python. This also reminds me of MovableType! Either way, I think we need more of these types of tools; both for techs and non-techs alike! Best of luck to the Kit55 folks!

TinaCMS: Tina is a toolkit for building visual editing into your site
Shameless plug: If you want a static site generator with an admin UI I can recommend Lektor (https://www.getlektor.com/). You declare your data model and templates and Lektor serves an editing UI for you. There is a good video introduction by Armin Ronacher (original author) if you prefer to digest video content: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lTWTCwuPdrU
Disclaimer: Occasionally I moonlight as a maintainer of Lektor.

Is MediaWiki right for my application?
If you NEVER want anyone else to contribute to the site, maybe a static site generator like hugo is a better bet? MediaWiki is pretty complicated to sysadmin, the primary benefit of it is allowing others to contribute.

What do you think about Hugo [1]? It supports markdown.

CMS autopost to LBRY? (long form text)
use a static site generator-like tool; or actual static site generator like Jekyll or Hugo, to manage structure and push to publishing location (LBRY) either exclusively or in addition to a separate hosting situation.

How I created my blog with Gatsby, Netlify, and Plausible.
I’m not experienced in Gatsby at all, making this blog was my first experience with this framework. After being checked some other tools like Hugo that also met my requirements, I decided to give Gatsby a try, as I'm more familiar with its ecosystem.

The Open Source Story - Open Sourcing RudderStack Blog and Docs
When we decided to open-source our blog and docs, we were spoilt for choices. Today there are multiple well-supported and fully-featured frameworks for open-source content creation. Some of the options that we considered were Ghost, Jekyll, Hugo, Nanoc, and Gatsby. There are even more frameworks beyond these, and each tool has its pros and cons. Which one do we recommend? Well, we don't. The best tool for you is the one that fulfills your requirements.
