For a lot of content this really works. What sticks with me in a way that I don't love is that this and many other modern, simple-ish solutions to having a lightweight CMS still relies on some Postgres config. I'm being picky, but

How much mixing does it do, measured in minutes? When I was making sourdough regularly, most of the work was turn and fold in the bowl every hour or two for the day. Therefore the work of a machine seems like overkill. I hadn’t really thoug

Yep. I love that I don’t have to think about Car. Because I don’t care about Car. If I’m lucky enough to buy new Car then I _know_ Car will work great because we figured out Car. Interiors, exteriors, etc… great. I’m glad there are buildi

Why is it so obscure about what kinds of apps are available, or do I already know the answer to that?

Getting apps or websites right for the most amount of people most of the time is an incredible UX challenge. It’s unequivocally better to have employed experts with higher order tools (admin dashboards, etc) do a lot of these tasks. Larger
