It seems like in practice the biggest problem is "it got deleted", and everything else is about either preventing others from deleting your stuff or preventing yourself from deleting it out of laziness or frustration.

Deploying a web site with (S)FTP works as well as it ever did... and is just as obscure to non-technical people as it ever was. Ease of use means loss of control.

It'd be a cool challenge to build something so simple that even a non-tech person could use which allows them to maintain control and ownership. Any good examples of tech in general that is highly approachable like this? Even things like WordPress are too complicated for most - maybe if not self-hosted it's not so difficult, but still falls short in terms of being complex and not just simple text or html (at the most)..
