Why every refil.cc site gets its own repo

Monorepo would be cleaner on paper. Separate repos make more sense for the way I want these sites to feel.

The refil.cc sites share an owner and eventually some backend data, but that does not mean they should share a design system.\n\nNow should feel like a live status card. Blog should feel like a place to read. RPrison should feel like a technical game project showcase. Keeping the frontends separate makes it harder to accidentally flatten all of them into one visual style.\n\nI am still happy to share logic where it is actually useful, but the public surfaces stay independent. A little duplication is worth it when the result has more personality.
