I blog with emacs using the long-abandoned o-blog generator. Anybody have something better? Using the org-mode exporter, with working org-babel and equations and all that. This article doesn't go into the details.

I wrote this to publish Org docs to S3 - https://github.com/EnigmaCurry/s3-publish.el - I wanted something extremely lightweight, not even wanting to commit things to git like I normally would and waiting for CI to build something. Uploading html directly to S3 means it gets published in <1s from push.

That's neat! For org, if it had an option to generate the HTML file name from slugifying the org file name instead of the salted hash, it could be fantastic for rapid lightweight blogging.

o-blog in the parent comment reminded me that I use to use a similarly named SSG called blogofile, and what do you know. Small world.

yes I used to use it too :) I think I've written three or four SSG since then haha.
