Build Awesome's Kickstarter was cancelled/rescheduled after launch email issues, despite initial funding success. The author isn't against the project itself (replacing 11ty), but criticizes its monetization strategy, citing past failures. The article also notes the end of Eleventy/Font Awesome rebrand & suggests alternatives (Astro, Pelican, Zola, bashblog), advocating for support of smaller open-source projects & diversified contributions.
