Is there a good alternative to github pages? I need just a static website up.

  • I have a domain.
  • I have my site (local machine)
  • And that’s all I have.
  • I have a machine that could be running 24/7 too.

    You need to qualify this statement, GotHib Pages can mean like two or maybe more things. Do you mean free static site hosting? Do you mean easy static site generation from Markdown files?

    Edit: GotHib 😭 what a typo

      Hi, I have means to generate the html/css/js myself. I am indeed, serving them in my LAN (python -m http.server)

      I need help learning how to make it accessible from the web.

      I don’t mind hosting somewhere else, but I really wouldn’t like my work being an easy snack for some AI. That’s why I’m not inclined to use GotHib 😁

        Sorry to say, but if you put it on the internet the AI bots are going to gobble it down.

        Only way to protect it is to not put it on the public net. If you add a challenge (login or something) it might stay unmolested, but that’s no longer a static site.
