So, what are some actually good options for personal blogging? I know of wordpress, but going on a search engine and trying to find a good-faith review for quality canned blogging software is impossible. Not only that, but everything is super bloated with features/attack surface I don't need. It'd be nice to have a blog where I could author everything in md/mmd, upload, and it's live. Image embed support is probably the fanciest feature I'd like.
