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.

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.

> 100 build minutes Er, what? A static site has no build on server.

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

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.

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

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!

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

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

Europe enters the static file hosting space. Meanwhile, Europe's most promising aerospace company just left for USA. https://www.heartaerospace.com/newsroom/heart-aerospace-relo...

hold on there, nobody is mentioning AI here? :-D

Swedish company, nice. But "European values" seems to be a non-statement. Doesn't European also possibly mean St. Petersburg, Malta, Cyprus, Istanbul, Greenland, or Switzerland? I.e. being not the same as EU hosting?

Doesn’t say anything about how much of storage is offered for any plan.

Looks interesting and serves a real need. However, pricing tiers seem a bit steep, especially for folks who don't need the build step to happen on the host. Also, at least according to the docs, ssh cert based authentication and password based authentication, but no support for public key based authentication?

Guys. Your top menu doesn’t even fit on mobile properly. The spacing of every element on the site is different and inconsistent. Everything about this site looks cheap and unconsidered. Design is important and builds (or loses) trust. It would take you at most an hour to make this site actually look nice.

The pricing is bananas. Why on earth is the bandwidth metered? An EU tiny VPS on Scaleway with unlimited bandwidth costs 5€. This thing costs 9€. With limited bandwidth. ?!

My hosting is rv2 in my meterkast from by cf which costs 0 eurohryvnias.

It sucks that we got to "European" being used as a main selling point.

wtf is a build minute and why is it metered
