hey #fedi, help me out here:

I'm looking for a tiny LIVE blogging solution.

A single author posts with #markdown or a #wysiwig html editor. Some Images, too.

#selfhosting
#freesoftware
#lowtech / low-overhead / resource friendly (i.e. not node.js)

I was thinking of a small php/python/whatever script using long-polling instead of polling or web-sockets. (It does not have to serve 1000's of users, but e.g. wordpress liveblog addon with polling was too much load.)

Any ideas/experiences?

@metaphil have you seen what Dave Winer is doing with #WordLand ? It might not fit your use case but it's interesting to see what's possible. https://this.how/wordland/
