There's a bug on the page. If your screen width is wider than portrait tablet size the first question is not rendered.

According to the author cloud domains are shutting down as well.

I recommend https://bearblog.dev (free) or https://ghost.org (paid). Both let you use your own domain.
It's fun to set up static site generators but I think it's better to pick something you can start writing in immediately instead of spending time thinking about what to use.
If you end up enjoying blogging you can switch to different software later if you like. But don't let that stop you from starting to write now.

Some technical details about the project you may find interesting:
- They were hosted on Digital Ocean but received a (probably invalid) DMCA takedown and all their servers were shut down by DO
- In response they bought an IPv4 block and built an Anycast CDN so complaints go to Neocities instead of the hosting provider
- People sometimes host spam or phishing sites on the domain which can cause google to flag it as malicious[0]
- There's a geocities gallery by the same author kyle[1]
I interviewed kyle if you want to hear more about the project[2].

It looks like they took a break this summer but plan to do another release of WriteFreely.
