Write HTML. HTML is still there. You don't need anything other than HTML to get started for a link-clicky formatted website.
Heck, you could even upload .txt files and use direct urls if you felt like it.

@zygmyd @haverholm I actually do this. I maintain my index page (which is a link dump) using vi in a terminal window, and then Forklift to upload it. (Sadly, my blog is, however, using Wordpress). https://www.miketorr.com/

@zygmyd While I agree about sticking to the basics when it comes to making a small, new website with no federating features — I'm co-admin'ing a 15 years old site with 2,500 posts, 3,300 comments, 4,500 images, and 260 podcast episodes. And, as I put in my original post, federation capabilities preferred. I think the .txt approach comes up short for this case.
