I occasionally feel like writing something, but personal websites have too many special effects, which greatly affects the reading experience. After some consideration, I chose Astro to create a simple blog. This also allows me to practice my native CSS skills and help me break my Tailwind dependency.

@enderromantic Nice to see your photographs on your website. Keep up the good work. And regarding to native CSS skills, you're definitely going in the right direction. For personal blog, there's no point of making it fancy, readability and accessibility and maybe performance are more important than other stuff. Plus, some people will turn on reading mode on their browser to get rid of the site's styles.

@heybran
Yes!

I've written quite a few blog versions, always struggling with animations and effects, which made the pages lag and become bloated.

After reading your blog, I decided to rewrite a user-friendly version.

Now it seems that was the right decision!
