Yeah although ipfs looks cool until we have a p2p based web you really need a cdn service for static sites that take a lot of hits. I wonder if Amazon is worried about ipfs because if that gets big there won't be a need for the S3 service.

No, you don't. HN traffic isn't that large. Even a Raspberry Pie should be sufficient (with good internet connection, though). See the above link.
You'll need a CDN for videos and maybe huge hi-res images, though.

I cannot digvup right now an article I read on HN about the load spike following HN visibility of a site.
I was planning to get back to it someday to understand how a static site like mine (with several HTML files and just one webpack-generated JS) would behave.
