lightweight blog ?
Hi,
I am looking for a good and lightweight blogging solution.
I imagine I can just go with a static site generator like jekyll but I'd like something else... it would be a plus if it can federate :)
Any ideas?
Thanks !
EDIT: I forgot to say that obviously wordpress does not enters in the "lightweight" category ;)
I am not sure about how lightweight they are (but I guess more than WordPress for sure) but on the federated side of things you have plume (https://joinplu.me/) and writefreely (https://writefreely.org/) that you can selfhost. Not super sure about how much you can customize them.
I'm liking them! even if they do not seem very alive (still, blogging itself is not the most "alive" activity around nowadays...)
Writefreely is alive. Plume not.
Plume isn't currently actively maintained, unfortunately. It's right below the fold of the page you linked 😞
As for customisability, I think writefreely has some different themes to choose from, they're just hidden away in the docs or on github.
