What do people here use for blogging and hosting? Everything I can find from searching suggests self-hosted Wordpress, but I am cautious because of its reputation in the dev world and since all the guides I have found so far are directed at non-coders. Thanks in advance for any opinions 😊

    So for my personal website I use a Github Repo hosted with Netlify. I don't have a blog but from what I know you can host a blog there too with some static page magic.

    It depends really on what you want tho. So there's Ghost, which is an open source blogging platform you could try, either self hosted or as a service. You could always also just rent a server and do your own stuff. It really depends on what you're up to

    I was playing around with Gitlab pages (using Hugo) and Netlify the other day. I don't have a solid experience, but it looked amazing. I'd recommend that approach.

    I've hacked together my own static website builder on top of GCC, works nicely. Basically, it's a script that abuses the C preprocessor with macros, ifdefs and includes.
