Maybe this doesn’t count, but Deno Deploy dictates Deno. I’m finding it pretty nice so far.
It will be more compelling when the FoundationDB-based KV store is finished. At that point there will be enough to write full web apps without any external API’s, so I can use it to build the simple hobby websites that I used to use AppEngine for. (For now I’m trying it out using Neon for Postgres.)
It’s still for developers rather than nontechnical users, but this may be simple enough to deal with that it does some of what Sandstorm promised to do for things like blogging. Or maybe a personal Fediverse server?
It would be nice to have a second source for Deno-based hosting, but in a pinch I could put Deno and my apps in a Docker container and run it anywhere, though probably not for free.
