Yeah, everyone with a decent amount of content will just pick Wordpress and move on. It works, it’s reliable, it’s well supported and will keep running for decades at least.

And once you have found your specific collection of plugins that happen not to put the exact features you need behind a paywall but others, you ain't touching those either.
- That or you develop your theme with the features you need baked in. This is the irony of the Hugo people, they’re capable developers that can make themes but they can’t just create a simples Wordpress theme from the ground?

  And this is why, when I'm investigating phishing links, I've gotten used to mumbling, "fucking WordPress". WordPress itself is pretty secure. Many WordPress plugins, if kept up to date, are reasonably secure. But, for some god forsaken reason, people seem to be allergic to updating their WordPress plugins and end up getting pwned and turned into malware serving zombies. Please folks, if it's going to be on the open internet, install your fucking updates!
Yea but the S in PHP stands for security

I have to say, I'm so over WordPress that those static site generators are looking pretty sweet right about now.

Pshaw... just write it in raw HTML. It's an incredibly legible markup language. I talk to my spouse in HTML just to stay sharp.
- I just write all my blog posts inside the empty line of this:
  
  <!DOCTYPE html> <title>My Blog</title> </html>
  
  Keep it simple, stupid!
Right? I'm tired of my admin dashboard being a wall of plugin advertisements (especially from plugins I already pay for).
- Omg the ads. How are they even allowed to get away with that?!
I went with eleventy and pure markdown files and I never looked back.

I say this as a person who loves WordPress and contributes to the open-source project.

I hate how oddly specific "Moved from Jekyll to Hugo people" is, mostly because that's exactly what I did as well. I don't use it to write any blog posts though. It's more a "Here's a list of things I've created"-generator.

I set up my site with Jekyll this year, and I have one blog post about how to set up a Jekyll blog.

weird dude who writes raw HTML

Eyy, that's me! Good excercise to learn actual HTML, instead of directly trying to jump into <insert random JS framework> and getting confused on what's what.

Anyway, I ended up switching to Hugo as a static site generator, because it was too damn hard to keep all my <header>, <nav> and <main> aligned for all my HTML files.

Now I can just write a markdown file as an article, or switch back to raw HTML if I so need (like rewriting Alan Turing's paper " On computable numbers" in HTML because I can't use TTS on the PDFs I found; I still haven't finished writing it, because I am now reading E. F. Codd's papers on the Relational Model, which is pretty wild how we already figured that shit out in the 1970s!)

I made a static site with Hexo a few years back. I thankfully didn't make any "Get started with Hexo" posts but I did only really use it for a few months. I think that puts me in the cluster with the "switch from Jekyll to Hugo" people. Now it just sits there, absorbing some money every two years for the "personal website tax".

Shame too, I constantly think I need to get back to it. Hexo is nice, popular with Chinese users I think. I don't recall now why I liked it over Jekyll or Hugo, but I've always loved an underdog. Once I got the hang of using it, it was very customizable and fun to work with.

I think the "Moved from Jekyll to Hugo" dot has an implicit catchment area around it, which includes people who don't technically fit that description, but they're close. I've used neither Jekyll nor Hugo, but the fact I understood that archetype meant I felt pulled in by the gravity of that point.

There are too many blogs and posts.

I wish there was one about vegan pizza 69 though
- there's no /c/veganpizza yet, but there is /r/veganpizza
Are there? I think they're super handy for just.... Having information. Easily discoverable by search engines, and much more coherent than following a forum thread.
