I have a Hugo blog I’m setting up to work on my own forgejo server flow instead of through Github Pages.

I hate how pictures work on Hugo so I was going to just host them on a separate thing and embed the images that way.

Now I’m over thinking it and considering to just run a Lemmy instance, post the markdown for the blog posts there along with the images. Then I have an image host and a place to let people complain about my shotty writing in one go.

Plus there’s federation visibility as well.

So short questions

  1. This a good idea?

  2. Are there better options?

  3. is it easy enough to set up a single user Lemmy/Piefed instance?

  4. Lemmy or Piefed? Which is easier to host
