I see nothing here that is minimalistic or different. First of all, having a dark mode by default is not minimalistic. Edit: wow, downvotes without any explanation. You guys must be having a lot.
Pretty much anyone can make this using Hugo, no?
Looks great. Please increase the font size to 16px or at least 15px. It is very difficult to read smaller texts which has become the norm these days.
If this is a common complaint that you have, why not just increase the font size and pick fonts you like in the browser settings? The settings are there for a reason.
The font-family is sans-serif, so it does honor that browser setting, but if you'd prefer to read it in a serif font, too bad.
Edit: leaving up as an embarrassing reminder to myself fully rtfm before opening my mouth. I thought this did NOT have comments and sub by email but it does. Glad y’all provided me with some feedback to realize I was wrong. —- Original comment: I don’t get it. If you want to write and don’t care how much you’re read, write privately (Google Docs, a journal, text file, etc.) If you’re writing publicly presumably it’s…
I see where you’re coming from, but I personally love blogging with zero concern for who reads it, how many likes it gets, or whether or not people want to give feedback. It prevents me from falling into a trap of crafting posts that have a bias toward what I think people might want to read, it keeps it pure.
Same with blogging, except I can publish any old crap on my blog without moderation.
- a git repo containing a Hugo (or similar) SSG site.
– push this git repo to a couple of free private repo hosting services (GitHub, GitLab, GCP CloudCode, AWS CodeCommit etc)
– and optionally use their free CI integration to generate the static site (or do it locally on your laptop).
- and push to a free cloud storage (AWS, GCP, Azure, Oracle etc all give storage in their free tier).
- Use Cloudflare CDN or AWS CloudFront (or both) to serve this static website from the storage origin.
– Use Cloudflare DNS for hosting your custom personal domain name and point it to the CDNs.
All this is free, with a bit of effort of initial setup in an afternoon. And it is super resilient with multiple independent CDN, Storage and Git hosting.
