Welcome to the dark side, Jeff! I migrated to Hugo from WordPress in 2019: https://blog.carlosnunez.me/post/neurons-are-firing-again/

I built some automation that helps me test and deploy changes to S3 as well: https://github.com/carlosonunez/https-hugo-bloggen. It's clunky but works for me! Feel free to fork/PR if you're interested, of course.

It was a great move; I couldn't be happier. Running my blog is basically free (because nobody reads it, lol, but also because it's served by S3 and CloudFront and the # of monthly requests is still within Free Tier).

At the time, some folks were questioning why I built this instead of moving to Netlify. I wanted control over how my sites were deployed and didn't want to pay some provider for convenience I knew I could build myself. Netlify got AI-pilled some time ago, which makes me feel vindicated in my position.
