Interesting, a few observations:

-It's really just a container, p, img, and button CSS framework (short of CSS's default flexbox)

-There are no components (Codeblock, quote, etc.)

-There is a semi-obfuscated IP tracker in index.html

While I find it noble in some aspects to create a simplistic blog layout, I also find it odd to post this project.

Interesting that you mentioned my counter. It exists only in the index.html file on the neat site and NOT in the neat.html file that you're supposed to use for your own. It also DOES NOT log your IP address, set any cookies, or do any other tracking of your personal information.

You can read more about that counter, which runs on a Raspberry Pi in my bedroom, at the URL below.

you mean that counter script, it wouldn't expose anymore information than a basic access log, I would assume it just makes it marginally easier to see which of his subdomains are popular.

But even a basic access most likely violates the GDPR and other regulations.
