im not sure if this fits the channels topic quite right, please let me know if it doesnt: i want to set up a blog style site, but its for one or at most three or four blog posts, ever, so i dont want to set up some overkill system with tons of complexity. id like some nice presentation of the blog post(s), and ideally some simple comment function. since it will not be something with recurring posts, i am not interested in things like content

management, user management, update schedulers, that kind of thing. any advice on what software to look at ? i am comfortable setting up and maintaining typical stuff via docker/k8s

IMO if you are not planning on ever adding content to it again then create a few pages of HTML by hand and avoid all the other nonsense

the last time i did html, tables were the tool of choice to arrange the design elements you made with pirated photoshop

there are some nice free templates at https://html5up.net that will give you a huge head start

for single serve sites like highlightpoetry.com I use https://newcss.net/

Won't you need some server side code running for the comment functionality?
#
[KevinMarks]
you can use webmention for that and have an external webmention receiver like webmention.io webmention.herokuapp.com or mention.tech

In case you weren't aware; Chromium browsers (Chrome, Edge), Firefox, and Safari now all support native image lazy loading. <img loading="lazy"/> No need for custom polyfills for major browsers anymore! https://caniuse.com/loading-lazy-attr https://pbs.twimg.com/media/FO_ISrxVcAAfL_t.jpg
