There's an old saying about good design being when you have nothing more to take away, rather than nothing more to add.
Wordpress is a fine product. I've used it in the past. It's complete overkill for what I want to do with it. They want to become a CMS - that's fine, but I wouldn't run a simple blog on Wordpress any more than I'd run it on Joomla or *Nuke or Drupal.
I want a space to write that supports markdown, looks decent, isn't PHP (an objectively terrible language that I have no desire to seriously learn), and is light enough to run on my microserver.
