Hello. I built a blogging platform on my own over two years.I like running my blog, but I couldn't find a blogging platform I really liked.First. I thought a blog had to be really lightweight. Fortunately, after a lot of effort, I was able to achieve satisfactory results. (99 to 100 score)Here is a sample blog: https://bloffy.bloffy.blog/enYou can check it with PageSpeed Insights: https://pagespeed.web.dev/analysis?url=https://bloffy.bloffy...SEO score of the sample blog is low because I blocked it from search engine indexing (noindex).Second. I think bloggers should have control over their own blog. The blogging platforms I used had several problems.Unnecessary JavaScript chunks. Ads that the platform inserted into my blog, not my own ads. Cannot manage multiple blogs. An editor that makes it hard to write semantic markup. Limited customization options. I was dissatisfied with the difficulty of placing my own ads.And to solve this, I spent quite a long time researching and developing it on my own, and finally created it. I'm glad to share this launch with HN. I would appreciate any criticism, feedback, and interest.
