    I was one of them. I won’t do it now. Security threats have become so time consuming nowadays to handle.

      A static website on a simple shared host isn’t really an issue security wise, and even WordPress has become much better in that regard as it has automatic unattended upgrades these days.

        The problems are bots spamming, or attacking to gather PI. Too much effort. We can’t have nice things anymore

          Neither can happen on a static website.

          And if you are doing POSSE anyways, you can just embedd a Mastodon feed for comments if you really want that.

            I am talking about “forum-like” websites not static web pages. The article is about fediverse

              The article is mostly about POSSE and how to manage sharing links to your blog to many different social media sites.

              Static website builders are often specifically designed for blogs.
