Hetzner or DigitalOcean with Coolify [0] works great, it's like an open source Heroku that runs on any host, you get git push to deploy, and a bunch of other features built in. It only works on one machine at a time though so it's not like a CDN but for small sites, it's great.

been happy with https://render.com/ free static hosting with custom domains.
used to use s3 doe the longest time, but aside from costing a nominal fee, it's so unnecessarily complicated in this day and age.

There are lots of reasons to avoid Netlify.

Discontinued A place to submit questions for Netlify to answer in tutorials, podcasts and blog posts
Does this issue only occur if you have billing info on file?
I'm using the free tier and have no billing info set. According to this https://github.com/netlify/ask-netlify/issues/6#issuecomment...

I believe you can replace most cases (static sites) with Cloudflare Workers [1].

CloudFlare pricing is indeed positively ridiculous.
At OpenTofu[0] we’re using CloudFlare R2 to host the providers and modules registry[1]. Bandwidth is free, you only pay for requests.
This already would be great, but there’s more - you only pay for requests that actually hit R2. So with an almost 100% cache hit ratio, we barely register any billable requests.
Recently someone decided to load test us and generated ~1TB of traffic over 1-3 days. All but a few of these requests were cached, so the whole situation probably cost us less than a cent.

Yeah there are a bunch of selfhostable things:
Caprover (https://caprover.com/)
Dokku (https://github.com/dokku/dokku)
But people still choose Netlify and Vercel for ease of use I think.
Maybe we need something that's just Netlify. The closest I've seen to the "right" UX is Ness:

For static sites, I’m quite happy with CloudFlare Pages + Github deploy action. (https://github.com/cloudflare/pages-action)
