Self-hosted photoblog options (waveform.social)

Hey folks,

I used to be semi active as a photoblogger and am tempted to get back into the habit. I ran an old self-hosted WordPress for years but I've been hunting around for any more modern alternatives (perhaps more specifically focused on photoblogging) and am not coming up with anything concrete.

Any recommendations?

I could be tempted into a third-party service option if it gave me a way to offer print sales on each photoblog post - but that would really just be a 'nice to have'

Thanks!

I have a small WordPress site hosted in docker on a VM in my esxi server. It works well enough and if you use docker you can setup a docker image to auto update and restart containers as updates are deployed. But honestly, if you want something long term that you want people to access regularly and not expose yourself going third party may be your best bet.
