Use webflow, ghost or whatever you like, but wordpress is good enough for most people.
HN audience can likely handle their own, but if ease-of-setup is an issue - I created StartABlog.com to help people do this (and we'll actually set up your site for you for free - https://startablog.com/start).
Own your platform. Own your content. Own your voice. Use everything else as distribution methods - not core dependencies.
