Max is a life enhancer for tech & entrepreneurship. Which seeks to blend both to build innovative products or services for the world that solves hard problems.
Yep, you are absolutely right. Most of the development publications started with WordPress and then moved to Gatsby.
I think it's just some peer pressure going in the Front-End community to use JAMSTACK
One of the most salient features of our Tech Hiring culture is that there is so much bullshit. Everyone knows this. Each of us contributes his share. But we tend to take the situation for granted.
It's simply that it's much more important to get started right now, have something that you can share, ... than to have the "right" way to build a website.
If you are alright with the hosting cost, by all means, go for it by picking Wordpress or Squarespace route which both are great choices.
Since my justification is that you should control your own content and narrative.
To prevent anyone from pulling the plugs on you by moving your content or having a paywall for content that you created for free by the platform.
For me, getting started with JAM Stack is much easier as you might think.
Since for GatsbyJS has its own starter libraries or themes that allows you to get started and host it online through Netlify.
Which this is the starter template that I used for my blog with some modification from my end by taking advantage of certain plugins.

Yep. Don't get me wrong, I like Jamstack myself
I will eventually build my website with Orchid

Yaah 😊, I appreciate your thoughts on this topic.
Orchid is great, and different in it's own from many SSGs out there. Support is awesome from the author 👍
Thanks for making this thread more helpful
