My new digital home

I was blogging on Wordpress (WP) (https://unreachable2027.wordpress.com/) and stopped writing anything new there from July 2015. I was updating only this page - Books I read and I am reading. I want to resume blogging. But, these days I am more into writing in markdown than in WYSIWYG editor. Though WP is very easy to manage and bundled with a lot of features, I’m inclined towards markdown. There are a couple of options for makrdown static site generators. Popular ones are Jekyll (written in Ruby), Hugo (written in Go). I am using Hugo and Mixedpaper theme and hosted on GitLab pages.
