Why and How I use "Org Mode" for my writing and more
FWIW, I ended up doing a lot of org-mode-like things by starting with https://zim-wiki.org a VERY long time ago; I use it for notes, scheduling, publishing my own website, and even slides with the s5 thing.
Somewhere in there, I gave org-mode 2 or so years and eventually gave it up entirely; it just really plays SO un-nicely with literally everything else.
Anyone else looking for this sort of thing, I'd probably point to Obsidian first, but I'll probably stick with zim for the time being.

MKWS – Simplest Static Site Generator
Love it.
Reminds me quite a bit of what I do; which is https://zim-wiki.org + a custom template I designed.
Plus some scripts and such to keep up with (bleh) Canvas CMS.

Zim - Wysiwyg for markdown files
https://zim-wiki.org/
My only complaints are that it uses .txt instead of .md and that I haven't been able to get it to work on Mac.

What App to Use for Notes?
I have used many open source notes taking apps. My goto used to be Zim Desktop Wiki [0] but its just a desktop app and the was no built in sync solution. On mobile I used Markor [1] which understood Zims syntax, as well as markdown.
Due to lack of mobile client and built in sync options I moved to Joplin [2]. Its markdown, cross platform, and i can sync with WebDav. People don't like that its SQLite based, but honestly worse com to worse your notes are an export away, or you can just open the database yourself. Im happy with it.
I always recommend Treesheets [3] though, excellent for brainstorming/rapid note taking.

Show HN: A Python-based static site generator using Jinja templates
I'll slightly modify your argument; because Pure HTML does suck:
Why don't people make static sites with a simple "Markdown-or-Similar to HTML" converter, CSS, and vanilla JS...etc?
(This is what I do, btw -- http://zim-wiki.org + a template)
