Heyo!

I'm not an expert on eleventy_img, but I did contribute a bit to it. Please feel free to tag me if you need help with anything related.

Something like a cron job (or maybe github actions or netlify functions?) that takes a screenshot would work quite nicely imo.

The files processed by eleventy_img have a hash in them, calculated from the original file's content (unless the original file is a URL). Because the hash necessarily changes when you change the original screenshot, you can cache them indefinitely in the browser with cache-control: public, max-age=31536000, immutable.

I also wrote a plugin to cache images across builds on netlify: https://github.com/zeroby0/netlify-plugin-11ty/
There's an eleventy screenshot thingy too: https://www.11ty.dev/docs/services/screenshots/

Here is the PR with migration from Cloudinary to 11ty/api-screenshot:
#738

This netlify function should be hosted as a separate project to decouple its cache from https://personalsit.es.
Cache suffix is individual for each website in the list and uses .md file create date. Probably, it should be changed to Last Modified to be able to reset cache for some websites by updating their .md files if necessary.

I made my own project to handle screenshots and deployed it to netlify, but you can fork it and deploy it by yourself if you want.

Hi there!
I've noticed that all images are missing right now. Not sure why though but wanted to let you know.

This is exactly the reason, @woodrunsdeep :D. Cloudinary killed my plan and I haven't merged in @kirillunlimited's PR just yet. Thanks for the heads up!
