## Hunter's comment
Blot, is yet another blogging platform with an interesting difference. It doesn't have any **interface**. It uses **Dropbox** as a storage backend and syncs the blog posts from your Dropbox directory.

It can create posts from different kind of formats like Markdown, HTML, MS Word documents, etc. Markdown is enough for everything, though. It has 7 minimalist and simple templates ready to use. If you're a developer, you can also  [create your own](https://blot.im/developers) templates.

You can specify the post [metadata](https://blot.im/help/metadata) on the posts' markdown file.

Every blog comes with a free subdomain. They also have support to use custom domains.

If you like minimalist and simple blogs and want to focus on writing, [blot.im](https://blot.im) is a good option. It costs $20 per year to host a blog on the platform. 

One thing I can complain about is the limited backend options. Storing the files on a private GIT repository might be perfect. Having a platform depending on another platform doesn't sound good.
