    I used to write raw HTML, but have since come up with my own markup system [1]. The posts themselves are still stored in HTML because I don't want to get stuck with a sub-optimal markup language. By storing the rendered HTML, I can change how the markup language works (and I have).

    The blog engine itself [2] is one I wrote starting back in 1999, and still in use. It works, does exactly what I want, so there's no reason to change it. And to see it in action: <https://boston.conman.org/>.

    [1] You can see an example here: <https://github.com/spc476/mod_blog/blob/master/NOTES/testmsg>. The markup engine is written in Lua: <https://github.com/spc476/mod_blog/blob/master/Lua/format.lu...>.

    It comes down to the person running the website has to care. That's it. It doesn't matter how simple it is if the person doesn't care.

    In my own case, I've been running my own website for 24 years now [1]. The URLs I started out with have remained the same (although some have gone, and yes, I return 410 for those) and the technology hasn't changed much either (it was Apache 24 years ago, it's still Apache today; my blog engine [2] was a C-based CGI program, and it's still a C-based CGI program. The rest of the site is static, and there's no Javascript (except for one page). I can see it lasting at least six more years, and probably more. But I care.

    [1] Started out on a physical server (an AMD 586) and a few years later on a virtual server.
