I am a big fan of SSGs. I stopped myself from overthinking it and created several Hugo sites. Created a quick Gatsby site that I did not release just to check it out. In general, I prefer Hugo. Both offer a selection of simple free themes. Both were easy to find my way around and get started. Mostly I like Hugo better because when I make changes (such as add a blog post), the site rebuilds itself faster than Gatsby. Both are suited for a no frills personal blog. Likely other SSGs you mention can do this too. The key is to select a theme with your purpose in mind. Some themes add bells and whistles. I host 2 Hugo sites out of AWS S3 buckets. They get steady traffic but not a ton. Cheapest path to a website ever. <grin>
