> It got my wondering: why isn't it easier today to put something on the internet than it was 10 years ago?

What did the "easy" way look like 10 years ago? I don't recall any method that wouldn't require at least some manual steps.

The easy way 10 years ago was FTP or rsync. It seems like that's still the easy way.

I'm wondering why nothing simpler/more automatic has popped up.

Wait, so is your problem sending a file to someone in particular, or is your problem getting text on the internet?
What could possibly be easier? You need to at least upload your website.
