Ask HN: Which blogging platform do you use?

Self hosted here.

I migrated from Wordpress to Middleman for my blog [0], but wanted to have a web UI for writing and editing blog posts so I wrote my own [1]. Here's a screenshot [2].

I also didn't want to lose all the comment history so I wrote another gem [3] for Disqus-like comments, which are loaded via AJAX given that the website is completely static.

I haven't gotten around documenting the gems but hope to do sometime this month!

Maybe because I'm so used to reading in english and portuguese, when I see phrases in languages that I'm not as familiar, I find them beautiful (like a melody, say).

Like this one from your blog: "Y ahí empezaba la magia y los sonidos galáticos del módem."

Hehe, that's a good one. In english it would go like this: "And that's when the magic would start with the modem's galatic sounds."
