It was short trial, but GitHub Pages just works better for me.
A couple of weeks ago, I moved my website from GitHub Pages to Netlify, hoping for a better development and production experience. I didn't really have a need to move just yet, but I wanted to see what the buzz about Netlify was about. So I spent a few hours setting it up and pointing my domain to the Netlify app.
It was working just fine at first, until I started making updates. The page would just load indefinitely and I would
have to visit cbebe.netlify.app first before charlesancheta.com would behave properly. I've had a few embarrassing
moments showing my website to people for a couple times and it refusing to load.
Another annoying was that every pull request and push to the master branch would trigger a build, even if none of the pages were modified. Netlify only provides a limited about of build time every month, so I found myself cancelling more builds in the Netlify dashboard more often than I manually deployed a build using the command line. This could be nice if other people were contributing to this repo, but since this is a personal website, I find that unlikely.
Realizing these, I moved back to GitHub Pages and manually deploying with the CLI. Maybe in the future where I would have to actually launch a production-level static website that I would revisit Netlify, but for now, I'll stick with my current workflow.
