Why does the site look like a default nginx page?

I have very fond memories of snooping autoindex pages on poorly configured servers back in the late 2000s. It's hard to find those nowadays. "Browser default" HTML also has a brutalistic and uninstrusive quality. I think this makes a great foundation for me to share all kinds of things I do. That is not to say there's no styling here—every detail is still meticulously chosen. I could have went for a more conventional modern minimalist design, but what's the fun in that?
