DigitalOcean App Platform has a $5/month flat rate for dynamic stuff on top of two static sites hosted for free...

if something goes crazy and you end up using a wild amount of outbound data, it looks like the next jump up is only to $12

Depends on what you would consider a "wild amount".

Their app platforms' bandwidth pricing is pretty painful at 0.10$/GB. With these prices and considering the app platform lacks functionality like multi-regional droplets or VPC integration, they are a subpar choice even compared to Firebase or Amplify.

Author of the post here. Fun fact: if I paid that for how much traffic I'm getting, this post would cost me $5 for being on the front page of hacker news for a few hours.
