10/19/2023, 2:34 PMWhat do people use for technical blogging nowadays? I don't like medium as a platform, but something with a similar "modern" feel would be nice. I just want a place to dump a few thoughts and have it look nice, perhaps in markdown, and with a couple pictures, no custom scripting or anything like that.

10/19/2023, 3:08 PMThank you! I think I'll go with write.as. I like its minimalism! I'll likely end up making something custom and host it on gh pages later on, but for the time being this is a good low-friction solution.
