Why Hugo over Astro for something lightweight? Or why not even bashblog? Seems like a strange choice to go with Hugo if he's aiming for lightweight and speed.
Just by being written in JS/TS and using node I suppose keeping it running is a task of its own (or keep a node_modules folder of 500MB) - compared to a hugo binary that will most probably work on any linux or mac for the next 10 years.
(I see what you're getting at but Astro has to be _the worst_ example. I have migrated off hugo to my own SSG but I don't hate it)
