All fun and games until they decide that they want to charge you a million bucks a month to pay for the uncontestable added value their AI features (that you don't use and never will use) provide. Or they get bought by private equity or some other faceless entity and basically leave it out to rot, security vulnerabilities and all. Or they take any of the millions of paths to guaranteed enshittification while keeping your blog hostage (until you can spare the eight hours it will take to move your content to something like Hugo!)

This was the reason why I invested in my hacky blog build and deployment script instead of moving my stuff over to Medium or Netlify when that was popular. You gotta look out for yourself.
