I faced this same decision a couple years back and one thing I would say is I have tried flat file services like blot (https://blot.im) and even building my own CMS and ultimately just ended up wasting time as I needed more functionality over time. I built https://radarthemes.com which I used to build blogging themes for developers, creators, and for myself. I even released a free theme for others who faced the same road I faced.

WordPress is a fantastic cms and I highly recommend it for blogging. If you do not care about additional functionality then blot.im was a great service.
