It all sounds ageist and misogynystic to me. I work with a few grandmas who are right there on top of the newest technologies going. One is a scientist working on a hell of a cool cloud product. Old ladies aren't the model of stupidity, as this thread might lead someone to believe.
Yes, exactly. Grandma should be able to easily publish. Now grandma doesn't say anything because the unnecessary complication pushed by google (https and now http3 which might be enforced a few years later. These has little to do with security and performance;
mostly the google ad business has any revenue from all these complications)
Grandma also pays her registrar and ICANN for the domain every year too. Free was never the price of having a website, and it's not a reasonable standard of expectation today. As is with literally anything else that needs maintenance, if you can't maintain it yourself, you have to pay someone else to maintain it.
