Self-hosted blog options. (lemmy.world)

With layoffs starting at WordPress, and me recognizing that I'm a bit of a dinosaur in this regard, I'm wondering what folks are using for self-hosting their own blog these days? While I'm not exactly prolific, I do like having my own little home on the internet to write up things I find interesting and pretending people actually read it. And, of course, I really don't want to be reliant on someone else's computers; so, the ability to self-host is a must.

Honestly, my requirements are pretty basic. I just want something to write and host articles and not have to fight with some janky text editor. And pre-built themes would be very nice. It would be nice if there was an easy way to transition stuff I have in WP; but, I can probably get that with some creative copy/paste work.

So, what are all the cool kids blogging on these days?

Regardless if individual projects use the whole feature set, it has the functionality and capability out the box. Saying it's not a CMS is a silly nitpick.

Honestly I think you're actually the one nitpicking, my point was whether or not the technologies had a blog focus. And that is what my data supported.
