I did this here at https://www.jaynicolsmith.com/ (its still messy) - followed a tutorial somewhere and it processes my obsidian.md vault, make a note - push to git - tada - you can steal anything i have used for this from here https://github.com/Jayziv/summer-project
Totally agree as someone who has been making personal sites since I was a kid in '98. My latest iteration has been nearly 2 years in the making now. I had a WordPress blog for many years but finally decided it was time as a software developer to have a site that was custom. The core idea of the site is as if you've RDP'd into my Windows 10 machine and can see all my files and apps. Everything runs client side which was also something important to me. If interested please check it out, I nickname it daedalOS and it's also open source.

IMO making "a new Wordpress" doesn't feel like a great alternative -- Wordpress is pretty good as it is, and you have the option of self-hosting fairly painlessly if you want to.
The fun of late-90s website-making is real though, but I don't see a turn towards that for the vast majority of people.
One nice corner of optimism is projects like Glitch [1], which give just enough space to explore, go wild, and quickly host what you make.
