@pthane @tiggy I think a self-hosted WP site is still a decent option, especially if it's a platform you're already comfortable with.

Does it matter?
Every few months someone asks me why I haven't moved my website to a static site generator. The suggestion is always well-meaning, and the argument is always roughly the same: static sites are faster, more secure, simpler. You should try Hugo. You should try Jekyll. Have you considered just generating flat HTML? I have considered it. I've experimented with both Hugo and Jekyll. I even tried moving the whole thing to Micro.blog for a while.
