From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

If you want to keep it as simple as possible, just use HTML. I don't even know what you can put in 1kb of HTML if you leave out all the head meta data. Have to try that out.
Well, really short posts. I only write a few paragraphs and the plain text is over 4kB!
Use the most basic HTML elements, sections, paragraphs, headings. No need to go fancy.
That is, in my case, the markdown I generate from. So pretty minimal.
That is already pretty minimal, but why the 1kb? As the website that is mentioned is 250kb max. That is quite the difference.
I don't have 1kB as a target, it's simply impossible unless I make the reader read my stuff in gzip. I just mentioned that your posts have to be really short to even be able to make a 1kB site like OP wants to
Yeah sorry, i misplaced the OP and you with your wants and needs, so interpreted your comment differently. But yeah getting a 1KB site is super hard! But it is a nice challenge.
