Hugo is nice. I only tested it briefly, the learning curve will be bigger than Wordpress. It generates static HTML in a uniquely "live" kind of way. You could then probably figure out a way to push it to a free service like Heroku, if you don't want to manage a server (incl. web server configs, patches, etc.).

I'll look into it, thanks for the suggestion. I don't know anything about Go, part of why I was looking into Jekyll is since I know a little bit of Ruby at least.

I mean, if the pages are static I can probably handle subscribing to a list for say, Apache, I just want to keep things simple since apparently Wordpress with all the JS etc has quite a big attack surface.

Anyways, I'll grab a book on it and see if it looks promising, but part of this is speed -- I'd hoped to stand something up by 1/1/23 but I may have to push that to Valentine's apparently...
