How to Start Your Blog in 2023
I'm using https://picocms.org/.
It is PHP based, works on a cheap limited web hoster.
The concept is: Upload a markdown file plus associated media, and it does the rest for you.
For customisation, you can use Twig and CSS, or a predefined theme (I didn't look into these, I wanted a custom appearance).
For feeds there are plugins, for comments I use a "mail me at [email protected]" approach.

Les Pas 2.6.0, Photo blogging
Ever since version 2.0, Les Pas has been able to share albums with other Nextcloud users, you can even co-edit the same album with others if you publish the album as 'Joint Album'. But how about people not in your Nextcloud server, like those friends who attended your wedding? Create temporary guest accounts for them is just not feasible. Photo blog is here to help! And luckily, we have Pico, the stupidly simple & blazing fast, flat file CMS, which happens to have a very good Nextcloud [app]((https://apps.nextcloud.com/apps/cms_pico), enable us to publish our own blogs.

Easiest static site generator
You can try Pico CMS. But if you have the time, try Hugo. The latter has a learning curve, and the docs are frustratingly non-beginner friendly, but once you get the basics, there is no going back!

Web.com, Register.com, and the great migration.

What are my best options to develop a blog website?
For a blog, Pico can do the trick, and it's really handy to use (it uses Twig as template engine that's one of the best part for me).

Any plugin to export an entire vault as html pages?
Agreed, although I'm not using Jekyll. I'm using [PicoCMS](https://picocms.org/) which makes it very easy to publish a folder of Markdown files on the web.

Ask HN: Looking for lightweight personal blogging platform
As per many other comments, it sounds like a static site generator like Hugo (https://gohugo.io/) or Jekyll (https://jekyllrb.com/), hosted on GitHub Pages (https://pages.github.com/) or GitLab Pages (https://about.gitlab.com/stages-devops-lifecycle/pages/), would be a good match. If you set up GitHub Actions or GitLab CI/CD to do the build and deploy (see e.g. https://gohugo.io/hosting-and-deployment/hosting-on-github/), your normal workflow will simply be to edit markdown and do a git push to make your changes live. There are a number of pre-built themes (e.g. https://themes.gohugo.io/) you can use, and these are realtively straightforward to tweak to your requirements.

Why Blogging Platforms Suck
I suggest hugo: https://gohugo.io/
Generates a completely static website from MD (and other formats) files; also handles themes (including a lot of them rendering well on mobile), and different types of content - posts, articles, etc. - depending on the theme.
It's open source and, being completely static, cheap as fuck to self host.

Any FOSS to make HTML websites for self-hosting?
