If you have a personal website: what platform, CMS, SSG, tech stack, or service are you using for it? Would you pick it again? How much technical expertise did it require to set up and make it your own? And do you have to do a lot of maintenance?
Once more – you guessed it – I’m asking for my #OwnYourWeb #newsletter subscribers. 😉

•> What platform / CMS:
https://github.com/pluxml/PluXml
> Would you pick it again
Not in 2023. It hasn't aged well on the UI and capcha for spam. But I use it since ~2006, I know it well.
> How much tech. expertize did it require?
Knowing a bit of PHP/HTML/Css is enough for a custom theme. Knowing how to put the files on distant server to install.
> do you have to do a lot of maintenance?
Cumulated, yes, a couple of full time work days /year (754 blog posts/12000 comments/1.4GB of data).
