Do you self-host it using FOSS tools? Use Wordpress? Design your own using PHP frameworks such as laravel? Just curious what those that do it use?

I used Google Sites a long time ago and I’m a bit surprised it still exists (with Google killing products all the time). How is it with revision history, etc. Is it easy to download the contents in a reasonable format? One advantage of GitHub/GitLab is that you have all your archive in source control all the time.
It’s fine for revisions history. I can see every published changed I’ve made going back 2 years when I created the site. You can actually use Takeout to get the raw css and html of the site if you wanted to as well. Although I wouldn’t consider it a user friendly process to do so. No real friendly way to export individual pages either though, so I couldn’t easily send my post to like a PDF for instance unless I printed it to PDF through the browser print functionality.
I liked it though because it gave me an easy way to create a consistent looking website that automatically sizes itself for any device without need for any hassle on my part.
Thanks for the explanation. If it works, don’t fix it :)
