Did you consider https://decapcms.org/ (previously Netlify CMS)? I'm surprised it never really caught on as it seems a good fit for most small Markdown based sites. Looks like Smashing Magazine was using it before they moved to Tina CMS (https://www.smashingmagazine.com/2020/01/migration-from-word...).

I’ve used it in prod before. It’s fine for small, focused sites. For example, I have some lists of people who journalists can contact. It uses decap to let editors manage the lists.
I did! I used to work at Netlify heh. I liked it but it was a bit too clunky for what I wanted (I admit I haven't tried it since Decap took over though).
The parent to this thread was head of dev experience at Netlify, so she it's presumably familiar with it!
