Hey, I made this! Feel free to ask anything.

I released this in 2016. It was a significant undertaking and I burned out pretty hard afterwards. I was operating under a naive "if you build it, they will come" model whereby building a modern-looking website, the community would coalesce around it and contribute to the wiki etc. But my "rallying people behind a cause" skills were insufficient.

One nice contribution: at the time Common Lisp didn't really have an official logo, which I felt was bad for marketing. So my friend made one: https://github.com/LispLang/lisplang.github.io/blob/master/a...

This was decidedly a social rather than technical effort, and social problems are hard to solve.

The website looks good! Do you still use Common Lisp? If not, what are the reasons?

I like Common Lisp but I no longer use it. I'm pretty much completely burned out on dynamic typing. It feels like building on sand. I want calmer programming, even if it's less powerful. At present I'm building a new language[0] with that goal in mind.
