I did end up building a (very dumb) solution to making it faster to write small posts. It's a shell script called posthog.sh which: Opens a temp file in vim If I saved the file, asks if I want it to be a note or a full post and auto-generates some basic front matter Opens the front matter as a temp file in vim so I can edit it if to add tags, etc Generates the actual post as a file, commits it, and pushes the commit so the site gets rebuilt on the server. In my imo you should never do something smart when something stupid will do.
