Same for me, too.

I honestly love https://mataroa.blog it ended my paralysis for searching a blog platform, and every page is bog standard HTML. It accepts Markdown, plus it has its own anonymous analytics, so it's nice.

On the other hand, everyone has different needs, and I wish Banner blog the best of luck!

I'm aware of four in total, excluding yours. Writing them down, so maybe you can get some inspiration from them.

- mataroa.blog - My favorite. Pretty minimal, but well thought out.

- smol.pub - Another favorite of mine, but a little too minimalistic for me.

- prose.sh - A part of pico.sh ecosystem. Very interesting, but I started with mataroa when they started, so I didn't migrate.

- bear.blog - A more comprehensive package, a bit too heavy for my taste.

Again, good luck. We need more small web. Not less!
