Given the current state of the internet I think it's best to avoid
dynamic sites altogether wherever possible.

A small personal wiki that is rarely edited by anyone other than its
owner is probably better implemented as a wholly static site, with its
git repo exposed as read-only to enable collaboration through email.

Wikis specifically have been known to be targeted by AI agents, and bot
traffic is such a problem that it's rare to see a website that doesn't
use some bot management system such as cloudflare or anubis. A static
site alleviates both problems.

(Not that I'm suggesting this as a solution to Greg's problem, as it may
or may not be applicable, but as a general statement re: personal wikis.)
