Bloggers lose time moving archives between platforms and hosts
Bloggers moving to a new platform or host can struggle to transfer posts, images, and formatting, especially when an archive is large or the steps are unclear. The signals describe people resorting to manual copying, searching for instructions, or asking a platform team for help; forgotten hosting credentials can make a move feel tedious enough to postpone.
For independent bloggers and small-site owners. Mentioned from Oct 2023 to Jan 2026 on Bluesky and Hacker News.

I want to make a copy of my WordPress blog in Kirby. But so far, I can't find a good instruction blog on how to export 700 posts, many with images, and import them in […]
I have a Wordpress archive of my old blog as well as a json file/ folder of said blog. I also have a spare Weebly website, so I was thinking about redoing my blog there. Is there a tool or set of instructions that will make this possible?
