I wrote about my experience with this here: https://thelinell.com/The-Notion-Experiment-8191f33eaa864469...

The main idea for me was to just reduce the barrier to entry so that writing more was too easy to avoid. I already use Notion for taking notes throughout the day, so transitioning to also jotting down blog thoughts has been very easy and has increased the amount of writing that I do.

When I decrease the number of steps to go from thinking about a blog entry to publishing it, that increases my willingness to blog.

Current steps:

- make newpost NAME='even a temporary title is ok, but a permanent one is better'

That creates a file with the headers and a couple of skeletal bits in the right place, then opens it in my editor.

- make rsync

That publishes it.

The blog is great, I love the layout with the tags, is it static? If it's open source I'd like to see how it's done

AFAICT this is just Notion with a custom domain.
