I have moved entirely to a JAM stack i.e. static sites with JS to add functionality via apis. I’m happy with this because if my host dies or pisses me off I can very simply move to another host. And my choice is any host, from S3 to classic shared hosting to CDN edge providers to a raspberry pi hanging off my router.

It’s a lot cheaper, and cms using tools like Hugo or Jekyll is really a lot better than WP because let’s face it you’ll end up editing the theme pho files in Wordpress. I now use metalsmith for new sites instead of Hugo as it’s more hackable.

One thing thars a bit harder is Wordpress is nice for a techie working with a non techie content editor. I’m making do with markdown and github for that but a solution to that problem could be a indie hacker idea.
