About a year ago I moved my blog completely off of Wordpress and onto Piecrust[0]. I realized I didn't need all the dynamic tools available in Wordpress, because blog, and Piecrust has so far worked beautifully.
Comments were replaced with Disqus. No more opening my site to any possible security holes, no more having to keep on top of plugin updates, no more crying tears of shame when I snuck a peek at said plugins' source code, I can check in my whole site into github and be done with it.

- Kronopath 13y agoI'm in the process of doing the same for my personal site with Jekyll.[0] It's so much more convenient to be able to structure and style my website the way I want without having to mess with Wordpress's PHP-based themes. And I find writing in Markdown with optional custom HTML snippets to be much more powerful than trying to wrestle the Wordpress browser-based editor into doing what I want.
