yapka I sit and wonder, in the end, is it better to just build the whole thing by hand instead of counting on wordpress, ghost, etc....

[Jacob_Hall] Haha you're in good company @yapka!
#
yapka Thanks, just trying to decide the path I want to take... use a site generator, write html/css from scratch, or platform like (wordpress,ghost, etc...)
#
GWG There's nothing wrong with weighing your options
#
yapka html/css from scratch seems like the most exciting..but lots of work and learning...
#
yapka I have wordpress up now and I don't like it to much... admin panel is just to busy..lol
#
yapka Has anyone made a base blog template using just html/css? Does such a thing exist?

yapka Also can anyone recommend a tool to crosspost from my mastodon server to twitter, till I figure out how to do it on my own someday.

[KevinMarks] My site kevinmarks.com is html +css and manual - I copy an old post and change it to a new one and add it to the index page manually
#
yapka [KevinMarks] looking at your site, you just move everything around manually , like recent publications?
#
[KevinMarks] You'll notice that they haven't changed in 5 years
#
[KevinMarks] Though I haven't done articlea for publications for a while.
