I have an nginx server with WordPress where I post my own poetry, for no one to see. Also the subdomains I use for some self-hosted stuff.

    Nope. I heard about how basically anything you expose to the internet gets attacked really quick by script kiddies and hackers, so I figure you have to have a lot of cybersecurity/networking knowledge that I don’t to do that successfully.

    Also, not even sure what I’d put up there. I’m not too sure anyone super cares about my personal projects besides maybe my friends, and I can just text them.

    This is probably a boring reply and not the answer you were looking for, but “no” is indeed a valid answer to the question and it is Fediverse engagement ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ if this was a big community such that I knew your thread would be guaranteed to get replies, I would not have given the “no” kind of answer you probably were not looking for. Also, I do think my reasons why I do not have a website might be able to spark some discussion.

    Self hosted WordPress is a big no-no in my opinion, very easy to get violated by random scripts.

    If you really don’t want a static site builder like jekyll, at least make it dockerized (do it even for a static website, dockerize everything as it’s better anyway)
