After MANY months of consideration, and many MORE hours of work, I've finally migrated my website from WordPress to Hugo!
I'm still playing with settings, themes, etc, but so far I'm pretty happy with it. What finally pushed me to make the change was the new DigitalOcean App Platform, which was a breeze to use.

I'm happy to announce a project I've been working on for a while now:
#OpenCuts, the open crowdsourced user testing suite
https://www.open-cuts.org
https://gitlab.com/open-cuts
OPEN-CUTS is a web-tool to help #OpenSource communities with user testing! The goal is to allow even inexperienced users to easily report test results for new software releases. OPEN-CUTS then aggregates and compares the metadata across versions to identify regressions.
