lightweight blog ?

[smokeydope@lemmy.world]

Would something like this interest you? Gemtext formatted to html is about as light weight as it gets. lots of automatic gemtext blog software on github that also formats and mirrors an html copy.

In order from little to bigger:

• any ssg like Zola or pelican
• mataroa.blog
• writefreely
• ghost
• lemmy

I've heard a lot of good things about Ghost. I see a lot of bloggers running it. I'm not a blogger and I doubt anyone would be interested in what I had to say...lol...so I don't have experience in that area. However, Ghost seems to be the ticket for bloggers. It integrates with thousands of services and some really great theme templates. If I were going to start a blog, that's what I would go with. Jeremy over at Noted.lol has a write up about it and iirc, he uses Ghost for Noted.lol itself.

I use fuwari

Writefreely is super light weight and minimalist in its design. It also federates with mastodon.

Maybe git+Jekyll+CD+web server?

You could setup some automation so you just create pages via Git.

I use the parsedown library with a custom PHP index page to serve markdown files as HTML.

What is your reason to blog, for yourself? If so I run (used to run gitea) forgejo and just spam everything in issue threads on specific repositories

this uses 150mb of ram, basically 0% cpu

forgejo is actively working on federation, it is there not sure how done it is I don't use it.

Writefreely is alive. Plume not.
