Just for what it's worth, this web still exists!
I wrote a python script that generates + uploads webpages...
This is the problem in a nutshell. I'm aware that it still exists technically, but my own experience mean that as soon as I start I think "I'll be doing this more than once, I'll automate it!" and I dive in to a thorny bush of build scripts and dependencies and questions like "How will I notify myself if the script fails?" which takes a lot of the fun away.
My expectations of what a website is, and how it should work, and my awareness of the pitfalls of the Old Ways means I can't really go back to how it was before. I don't want to. I miss the good bits, but I know there were lots of bad bits as well.
