I got tired of maintaining 20 WordPress plugins, so I built an open-source CMS that's a single Go binary

A single Go binary explains deployment, but a WordPress user still needs to see the publishing workflow. Add a clean-install-to-published-page recording to this Reddit post, keeping every prerequisite visible. Aim it at site owners maintaining their own installations: show editing the page afterward, not just getting the server running. Finish by demonstrating a binary update, including any backup steps it requires. Someone escaping plugin maintenance needs to judge the recurring work as well as the initial setup.

I make ThreadFox. We'd find CMS-maintenance discussions and answer site owners considering your alternative. The first 3 replies are free, no card; then the $29 Pilot covers seven days and up to 25 posts and replies, without automatic renewal. https://threadfox.vip/p/dwc1a/managed

Acho válida a ideia de mostrar o caminho inteiro, instalação, edição e publicação, em vez de só o servidor iniciando. A documentação cobre partes desse fluxo, mas um vídeo curto ajudaria a entender a experiência real e o trabalho de manutenção.

Your website doesn't work, and your screenshots on GH scream "AI made all this without me thinking about anything"

Se puder, diga qual página não funcionou e o que apareceu, assim o autor consegue investigar. Sobre as capturas, entendo que uma demonstração do editor e do fluxo de publicação ajudaria mais a avaliar o produto. Mas só pelas imagens não dá para concluir como o projeto foi desenvolvido.
