Can a program be the only thing able to have access to a private key?
You don't have to attach identities to public and private keys. If all you need it for is signing, then check out minisign.

Beginner: how to do basic cryptography for a blog
In your case, use a tool such as https://jedisct1.github.io/minisign/ to do signing/verification. GPG is another choice which is very common. It will produce a "signature" which can be embedded alongside your posts verifying that the text of the post was endorsed by someone bearing the given public key.

Is it worth it to make the move to ProtonMail & VPN?
Claiming it's not ancient because Linux desktop distributions still use it for signing packages is a very odd argument. Most Cryptography experts (note: I'm not talking about programmers, IT professionals or people who know a thing or two about cryptography, I mean actual cryptographers) would agree that we should start using something like signify or minisign instead of the bloated mess that is GPG for signing package repositories.

Ask HN: How to handle user file uploads?
Read through the comments and was surprised no one mentioned libvips - https://github.com/libvips/libvips. At my current small company we were trying to allow image uploads and started with imagemagick but certain images took too long to process and we were looking for faster alternatives. It's a great tool with minimum overhead. For video thumbnails, we use ffmpeg which is really heavy. We off-load video thumbnail generation to a queue. We've had great luck with these tools.

.Webp is the bane of my existence
if you're using linux (which it doesn't seem so) there's also vispdisp https://github.com/jcupitt/vipsdisp which is based on https://github.com/libvips/libvips which will likely take over how images are decoded in the future for everything, at least methodology wise.
