Alternatives to Laravel?
https://backdropcms.org was a fork of Drupal before the rewrite. It was pretty decent when I tried it (admittedly several years ago).

The Magic of Small Databases
I see you decided on Wordpress, if you were going to use a CMS I think Drupal 7 would have been a good choice. Drupal has concept of entities and views. An entity as the name suggests is essentially a table and you can add all sorts of different fields to it. From simple text and number fields to images and fields that lookup other entities thus creating relationships between entities. Views is another construct that lets you choose how to display the entities. As a list of as a table a two possible views. Most of this can be done in Drupal 7 without writing code. I say Drupal 7 because you mentioned Wordpress. Drupal 8 and above is more of a developer framework and requires knowledge of Composer. Backdrop [0] is fork of Drupal 7.

Doing some research on technologies: Why are a large portion of Drupal downloads still the Drupal 7 version?
I think some smaller biz and nonprofits jumped off to https://backdropcms.org
-
Leadership?
As a result DO community is not able to delete stuff. For example, they should delete all Drupal 7 stuff on the official website and give the lead to https://backdropcms.org/ regarding support. They should also auto archive issue that are more than a years old without activity.

Any other CMS that you find interesting to try after Drupal? (excluding wordpress) 😁

Does it make sense to learn Drupal 7 now?
Another important alternative is Backdrop CMS. It's essentially an updated fork of Drupal 7, so migrating is really the easiest choice. Remember, even with D8 and D9, more than 50% of Drupal sites are still on D7. https://backdropcms.org/

FlowDiver: The Road to SSR - Part 1
Disregarding props-drilling technique in favor of a more reliable and elegant solution we looked for inspiration elsewhere. Another project of ours .find was using Typesense/Algolia components, which looked a bit like black-box/magic, but at the same time provided a clean approach to build complex and highly customizable solutions.

Vector databases: analyzing the trade-offs
I work on Typesense [1] (historically considered an open source alternative to Algolia).
We then launched vector search in Jan 2023, and just last week we launched the ability to generate embeddings from within Typesense.
You'd just need to send JSON data, and Typesense can generate embeddings for your data using OpenAI, PaLM API, or built-in models like S-BERT, E-5, etc (running on a GPU if you prefer) [2]
You can then do a hybrid (keyword + semantic) search by just sending the search keywords to Typesense, and Typesense will automatically generate embeddings for you internally and return a ranked list of keyword results weaved with semantic results (using Rank Fusion).
You can also combine filtering, faceting, typo tolerance, etc - the things Typesense already had.

Obsidian Publish full text search
I haven’t used Publish, but I’d assume you could use something like https://typesense.org/ to index and search the vault.

DynamoDB search options
A cheaper option would be to use https://typesense.org. You can use DynamoDb streams to automatically load records. It has worked well for me.
