If you are going for a single user blog, you would probably be better off going with a normal content type and Views.
If you are going for a multi-user blog, I would stick with the Blog module. In Drupal 8, it will almost certainly be a contributed module, perhaps improved from the current core version.

Hi, I'm rather new to Drupal and would like to create a blog and not have my article list be the home page. I would like to designate another page called "blog", or any name I select, to be the listing page.
I am reading that the best way to do so is to create a "blog" content type. I am reading the blog module is not the best approach and this module will be removed in version 8.
I'm thinking I need two things:
- blog content type
- blog listing page - do I need to create this or is this automatically
created as part of the creation of the content type.
If there is a better solution, please advise.
Any guidance is much appreciated.
