An almost seamless transition from Ghost to Hugo

Well, I finally did it. Ghost has been sitting on an older version for a long time, my certs were expiring, and I did something about it. TL;DR; My blog engine and hosting were deteriorating fast, so I moved to GitHub Pages, Hugo, and Static Site Generation, (mostly) without losing or breaking anything. Synopsys Years …
