Why Blogging Platforms Suck

• mataroa

  25 187 9.3 Python

  Naked blogging platform

  

Same for me, too.

I honestly love https://mataroa.blog it ended my paralysis for searching a blog platform, and every page is bog standard HTML. It accepts Markdown, plus it has its own anonymous analytics, so it's nice.

• Hugo

  548 72,452 9.8 Go

  The world’s fastest framework for building websites.

  

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.

• InfluxDB

• astro

  503 42,342 10.0 TypeScript

  The web framework for content-driven websites. ⭐️ Star to support our work!

  

I currently use Hugo for my personal website, but if I were to start from scratch today, I think I would give Astro a try. https://astro.build/
