Maybe should add "with Cloudflare Workers" to the headline

Because hosting a blog inside a subdirectory is like the most trivial webserver thing ever

Are we not just doing static html for blogs anymore?

We could just enable auto-index and drop a bunch of .txt files into it.

That doesn’t sound bloated enough. Too fast. Gonna give a user whiplash.

.htaccess that rewrites .txt to HTML using regex in bash.

(2025) At the time (on a different domain, but not in a subdirectory) https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=46050069

Yes I switched the domain. But davidma.co redirects to davidma.org.

It doesn't presently (maybe a config issue?) Cloudflare just never responds:

> Connecting to www.davidma.co(more..)

> HTTP request sent, awaiting response... (timeout)

This is somehow news? I was doing this 30 actual years ago.

Long before Google and Cloudflare stunk up the internet.
