I ran an "MVB" for a while but mine was even more simplistic. Just a straight HTML page and for posts I would write them as .txt files and manually update the homepage. While it was quite "verbose", I would still say it was easier than having to deal with the "modern web". Since that time I have moved to something more sophisticated and now run Astro for my personal site and blog and honestly it's freaking awesome. On their landing page they claim it's the best platform for "content driven sites" and after using it for 6 months I have to say I agree, they take all the BS out of building a blog and just give you clear and easy to follow conventions for just about everything you'd want for a blog.
