asking for a friend: what platform would you recommend for personal blogging?

they would like to avoid dependency on big tech, but need a way for non-technical person to be able to set up crossposting to mainstream social media sites, where their friends and customers are now...

@hi I’m enjoying Micro.blog at the moment. Great for posting to other platforms, but only costs $5 a month. Really easy to get started too.
