What's the cheapest/easiest option for hosting a static website (with SSL, obvs)?

I already own the domain and have DNS/email managed and don't really want to shift that.

All I find include domain/email/wordpress/... which I don't need, nor want to pay for?

@larsmb GitHub Pages and GitLab Pages both let you set a custom domain, and support ACME cert management. Codeberg Pages can do the former but not the latter, I THINK.

@xahteiwi I still have GH trauma from experiencing Jekyll, maybe I do need to get over it.

@larsmb @xahteiwi you are not bound to Jekyll anymore when using GitHub pages. GitHub Actions allow you to use any renderer you want.
