One example I can give you is the the Gitlab pages artifact size limit (1 GB). Most providers also have a "max build time" that is too low for projects of this size.

You could host on AWS or GCP which doesn't have any limits.

I have hosted it using an s3 compatible object store for now. But the experience was really terrible compared to Gitlab Pages / Netlify (Just push it to a repo and you are done!).

there's standardized tooling you can use to do this from git, or you can just use `hugo deploy` from your workstation.

At the "largest" level, you should accept 1-2 hours of minor setup/fiddling at least.
