+### Nobody builds their blog with MkDocs. What's wrong with you
+
+Tired of social media buttons and fancy animations that come at the cost
+of computer juice, I quit. So here you are, in a static-site blog
+generated with MkDocs (a documentation engine written in Python, like
+Sphinx). I call this "Blogumentation".
+
+Here is a list of tools that I ruled out:
+
+- [__ssg6__](https://www.romanzolotarev.com/ssg.html) — A static site
+ generator written in shell. Extremely simple yet versatile. Sadly, it'll
+ take forever for me to settle on a template or CSS, and, given so much
+ privilege, I will most probably break everything.
+- A self-hosted pastebin. The links would be a mess, albeit short.
+- HTML+CSS from scratch. Same as ssg6.
+- Sphinx. It graduated with a `.rst` degree, but who uses rsts these days.
+- Hugo. I didn't want a Go environment on my machine. (Update: Joke's on
+ me, I installed go later and wrote a bit of it. But still no.)
+- Hexo, Jekyll, etc: I didn't want a Node.js/Ruby environment, and I mean
+ it this time. Keep them away.
+
+## Debloated

+You will not find any of these in my blogposts, as long as I am in control:
