Good luck with Hugo! Very fast.
I used it for a while on something interesting but not load-bearing, and ended up giving up because one of their frequent updates caused the theme I was using to break, and I wasn't skilled enough in the art to debug what had changed and what I needed to do to fix.
Note to self, review Hugo after they get to a 1.0 release (they are on v0.157.0)
@w8emv So far, it's been very useful because I've had to figure out the answers to important questions like "where does Mac put the terminal?" and "what is this Homebrew thing?"
My test builds are fast, and I am a little apprehensive about themes. I have zero interest in debugging, and would kinda like to treat them like WP themes (largely swappable, with minor annoying manual changes). It looks like I should be able to manage that...?
@KD3CPY I just rescued way too many blog posts from way too many years of blogging from Typepad to Wordpress. High on my list of any possibility of doing something else is, can I import too many blog posts into it?

I also do need a new static site though, the alternative I was looking at was Eleventy (which I guess is now called Build Awesome? some drama there) @11ty I just am looking for something tiny so that I can do a one-page website with a few links in Markdown.
@w8emv My TSOR also included 11ty and Jekyll and...maybe there was another one in there? I kinda picked Hugo because I noticed somebody in a webring used it, and I was basically just fine, good enough, this is not a decision that requires rumination.
(There is part of me that really resents Markdown, because is it really so difficult to use <strong> or <b> instead of an asterisk?)
