Just to note down an update on where I'm at with this. I mainly lost interest as it was a PITA working with Jekyll, switched focus for the time being, but hope to pick this up again at some point in the not to distant future.

If you're struggling with the Ruby dependency management, I have had success with the Docker container. If you're struggling with the Jekyll itself, well, you and me both. In any event, we appreciate it.

Further on jekyll: any time I've proposed alternatives to Jekyll on various Typelevel projects, people stand up for how easy it is to deploy on gh-pages. If we were to do a more radical overhaul, we'd need an answer to that.

Paradox has been my favorite static site generator for the JVM (i.e., no extra install), but I think it's more geared toward docs than blogs. I use and like Hugo on some other sites, but there would be CI work, and the syntax is less familiar to people.

But that's all probably discussion for another ticket.
