I'm too lazy and don't have enough time to design a new website so I'll probably use this https://vercel.com/templates/next.js/portfolio-starter-kit I do remember seeing another template that looked similar but with page view counters on each blog but I can't find that template anymore
Portfolio Starter Kit – Vercel

Easily create a portfolio with Next.js and Markdown.

And then decided on actually url shortening using vercel's url redirects as documented here https://medium.com/@p3yman/create-a-simple-url-shortener-for-your-website-using-vercel-629fe129acff on my upcoming portfolio and blog webiste
Create a simple URL Shortener for your website using Vercel

URLs could be long. Very long. When you have a blog, you try to create the URLs with meaningful sentences like `working-with-new-suspense-system-in-react-17`. It actually is a good title for the SEO…

I'm still amazed at how many frameworks and ways to develop a website there is but when I go to try to code a desktop app, it just feels empty. Like there's no way qt is the best way. I would hate to use electron considering how slow obsidian and vs code is since they are electron.

Super productivity https://super-productivity.com/ kinda seems cool. I like the idea of time tracking on my todo list currently vikunja https://vikunja.io/ but I don't like that its not self hosted and quite complex. Need to get my nextcloud sever up to sync the files with webdav I guess
