Certainly I wouldn't use it for blogging (as I said, the default HTML output is pretty spartan), for that I have Frog, which I mostly just tweaked a little bit with a custom Bootstrap template. The bulk of my writing though has traditionally long-form (I'm not great at maintaining a single-interest blog, and social networks are better for personal musings most times), and for that I don't think I'd use anything else but LyX, especially if I were self-publishing (which I generally have been).
