I wonder why people like s3 buckets. if your website becomes viral it might become expensive

It’s pretty easy and free to slap a CDN like Cloudflare on top of an S3 bucket

There is an AWS CDN available that can be placed in front of the s3 bucket. Also allows for custom domain names, TLS, globally distributed for low latency ec. https://aws.amazon.com/cloudfront/

I posted a link to my photography blog on HN once and had a traffic spike of five digits of visitors above usual and paid AWS less than a coffee at my local barista café to handle that, thanks to an AWS CloudFront CDN in front of it.

There might be better offers out there, but I have no pain that makes me switch away from what works for me, is cheap enough and what I know.

True. For static only deployments, I would use Firebase or CloudFlare or Vercel or Netlify etc. You get automatic CDN and generous free quota.
