This Blog is now hosted on a GPS/LTE modem

I recently migrated a personal blog running on a hugo static site to digital ocean with automated github deployment, SSL certificates, CDN, and a custom domain. It took all of 15 minutes including updating the DNS on my custom domain registrar.

The same but with AWS S3 instead of a VPS is even simpler and avoids any maintenance / software updates. The bandwidth is more expensive but for a small personal site it shouldn't make much of a difference because you also save the price of the VPS.

I'm using DO's free tier. The static site hosting may be a new feature. There is no VPS needed for it.

My AWS S3 skills weren't good enough to figure out the CDN + https. S3 static hosting without those was super simple though.

I find GitHub Pages even easier for that scenario.
