Big brain tech dude got yet another clueless take over at HackerNews etc? Here's the place to vent. Orange site, VC foolishness, all welcome.
This is not debate club. Unless it’s amusing debate.

As someone who is running a simple WordPress portfolio / brochure style site, what are some alternatives?
Depends on what you're doing with it. You could get away with a SSG for some use cases, but Wordpress with plugins can get pretty crazy and out of scope for simple SSGs.
or if you want comments edit: self-hosted, not third-party
Easy but intrusive option: disqus, most Hugo themes already support it and it doesn't require a server
Hard but Foss: isso, it requires a vps as it's in python, and literally zero Hugo themes support it so you have to edit their source to include it (not extremely hard, you just override the disqus part)
yeah, i should specify self-hosted - if I wanted third party I could just use any old shit at all levels
