  Does it matter? To people at our distance from it the process is a magical one where a git repo becomes a website. What technology stack they use, on which services, etc, is an abstraction that isn't particularly relevant to us.

    Until it breaks. Then you are either completely stuck, or trying to untangle the thick, multilayer abstraction hosting your "static" website.

      If it broke it would take me all of minutes to have it hosted elsewhere. There is essentially zero lock-in with the service, even if you're using some of more complicated build steps.
