I use jekyll for many sites, most aren't even blogs. But it's really slow to compile and there's not many plugin options so you have to try to write them yourself in ruby except documentation for writing your own is scarce and insufficient. I also wish there were an easier way up make an api call to get data to use within the template. I tried migrating to hugo for these reasons but i'm not a fan of hugo syntax and i couldn't figure out how to setup a non-blog site.
