So what's the alternative

What's your goal? If you want just a random site, then WP will do the job. If you want to learn web development, then I'd start it with a local http server (apache/nginx/whatever's your poison) and start writing html/css/js by hand, and see how it builds up line by line.

Look for a "static site generator". Bearblog and Hugo are popular ones. Then you can host your site anywhere and don't have to worry about security problems.

Bearblog is a service, not a static site generator one can use like Hugo.

From the Bearblog GitHub:

> Bear Blog has been built as a platform and not as an individual blog generator. It is more like Substack than Hugo. Due to this it isn't possible to individually self-host a Bear Blog.

Jekyll would an alternative for Hugo.

		Whoops. My mistake for only reading HN headlines and extrapolating. OP, please disregard this recommendation.

A static site is much less vulnerable to security issues.

		Can't we handle wordpress security on our own or use some plugin

Depends on the languages you know and the type of sites you're building.
