I've seen multiple amateur projects handle the Reddit hug like champs because they were static front-ends hosted on GitHub Pages with cautious AJAX calls to backend APIs. With a limit on 100,000 requests per month (which could be consumed in a few hours in such case) I guess this era is over.

This has been around for a long time (see other answers in this thread), so if you've seen any site handle the Reddit hug in the last year, no reason anything should change.
