Wooo, finally cooking with automatic-website-rebuilds-on-merge! Even just a day in, having one less manual step to do when trying to make updates has been huge for tinkering.

Who needs GitHub or Vercel or AWS or whatever trash they're selling you, when you can have: 1) #11ty, 2) #NearlyFreeSpeech.NET, 3) a git repo on a smaller #Forgejo instance, and 4) a mid-week hyperfocus stint?

Bravo, #nearlyfreespeech ! This is worth knowing and passing along for #lgbtqi folks looking at hosting. This is the place!

I have for very many years used https://www.nearlyfreespeech.net to host and provide many of my online sites and services. They provide an excellent service at a decent price, and because it all Just Works [tm] I rarely need to log in there.

But I've just logged in and they are prominently displaying this post from their blog to all users.

Entitled "A quick note to our queer members", if only more businesses would stand up for themselves and others like this.

It doesn’t have any super useful stats (yet) but I was able to put together an automated status check on my #NearlyFreeSpeech #server

nearlyfreespeech.net is such a great domain service provider.

Adamantine Plate armor equipped!

I've been a happy #NearlyFreeSpeech customer for years. Their core product is supercharged DIY shared web hosting for tinkerers who don't need the power of a complete server or virtual machine. They're committed to defending genuine free speech, not the corrupted variant touted by hate groups.

However... they *are* just a small company based in the USA and bound by its laws. I expect they don't have the funds for expensive lawyers, let alone 'donations' to presidential inaugurations. I don't want to move hosts, but maybe I do need to think of worst-case scenarios. So, any recommendations for hacker-friendly web hosting that's not located in an authoritarian jurisdiction?
