    I'm using this for my mother's website (https://www.touchofglass.eu/), and my only complaint is that it assumes you version a website in a Git repository. You can work around it by uploading a tarball or something like that, but it is far less convenient than using sftp/rsync. But considering that we are far into the free 10GB a month and I only have to update it very infrequently, it seemed like the best solution.

    How does it compare to neocities.org, which is sadly not EU?

    I’m a happy OVH user, their free static hosting (part of their paid domain service) is enough for my needs. I’ve been using that platform for more than 10 years now. At the same time I like that there are more alternatives.

    Does it automatically generate a TLS certificate? I didn't find documentation about that, just that you can setup your own domain.

    Seems really cool!

    Looked cool at first, but that FreeSewing logo scared me away.

    The 9€/mo price point seems weird, considering its "just" static hosting and i can get a decently sized VPS (yes, also from a EU host).

      You can also get a fully-featured shared web hosting package plus email for that price. 9€/mo is wack.

    OT: is Cloudflare not offering Pages anymore?

    I logged into CF dashboard the other day and was super confused because it appears to be replaced by Workers.

    No /cgi-bin/ directory? I am disappointed. ;-) Greetz to Sweden!

    > 100 build minutes

    Er, what? A static site has no build on server.

      A static site could be built from source on the server

      Many static sites are made using a static site generator, which turns input files into a static site in a build phase.
