It worked fine. But &ldquo;worked fine&rdquo; started to feel like the wrong bar. I was paying for managed hosting on a platform built for publication teams, using maybe 10% of what it offered. Ghost is good software. It is just overkill for a personal blog where one person writes and nobody else needs a CMS.</p> <p>I wanted something faster, cheaper, version-controlled, and fully mine. <a href="https://gohugo.io">Hugo</a> with <a href="https://vercel.com">Vercel</a> was the answer.</p>
