But, what would the backend be for? Like the news pages and releases? Cuz it might just be easier to update the git site when we want to update it

That why I suggested/mentionned Sveltia CMS, which basically add a CMS backend based on Git to a static site. using Gitea Credentials/permissions, he provide a wysiwyg editor, and it handle all the commit/push side, allow using "review" (Aka Pull Request) ... it's neat 

i messed w somerthing n i went away. im on w10  

Sure, we could do that. Unless we would want to start over and make a new website, because that one is 14 years old. Either is fine 

It runs on WordPress[1]. @Stan` was saying that Git is not very accessible to non-developers, but I don't know if WordPress can be configured so that anyone can modify the texts.
