I know Jekyll would be sold here in the name of "simplicity". But you should know that Jekyll sites are also the quickest sites getting abandoned because it takes a lot of work to do minor update to large site. Plus you may not find support for lot of customizations you might want to do. So I'd rather much prefer WordPress even though it's not being sold as "blog like hackers do". It's very usable, simple in use, installs in 5 minutes, extensible unlike anything else, tons of community support in form of plugins for everything you might ever want to do. You can self-host or get hosted by someone and so on. PHP jokes aside it's very likely the most usable, extensible and hackable system out there.
