Yeah it's the ugliness thing that makes me wary of following in your footsteps. That said it would be nice if I could turn my blog in to a ebook, like, instantly.

If you want to go the self-hosted route, there are a number of static-site generators out there with many themes available. As mentioned in this thread, Jekyll is one of them!
I can't recommend one because I ended up making one my own (just a script that uses pandoc
to convert markdown to html) but it's ugly lol.

my friend uses dreamwidth for her book review blog and i think as a user you can create communities that act as separate blogs?

if you go the self hosted route i like jekyll for this purpose. you can host entirely on github pages which is where i host teatimer.site (although i don't use jekyll for that, it's too simple to need jekyll)

What about WordPress? It seems customisable and independent enough that you don't have to fuck around with likes and reblogs etc.

P.S. to see a first hand example of my level of techitude, see my custom styles for jstpst.net - Saturn Valley or something. I use it solely for this site and it imitates the save file and character creation screens of EarthBound. Also, mint green and light blue squares are objectively the most delicious looking background graphic possible. I would sincerely wear a t-shirt based on EarthBound save file and character creations screens!

it's cute because both players play using the same DS, it's just a timing game where you each hold it, one player uses L and one uses R to hit the ball. Surprisingly good fun :D

if you're playing on an actual DS, the ping pong minigame in WarioWare Touched is silly and fun for a bit. Gotta unlock it first though and it's the only multiplayer part of that game iirc.

New Super Mario Bros and Super Mario 64 DS came with a lot of great minigames. IIRC they take very little (no?) language, but I last played ~15 years ago. Extra great because of DS download play. (Peer-to-peer connection, no online services needed.)
Mario Kart is also a classic.

The onlt issue with it being ugly is that my CSS skills are limited. But the static site is pure HTML, CSS, and a teensy bit of JavaScript (for rendering LaTeX).
I'd write pure HTML but I just get in a flow better with Markdown
