Show HN: Scar – Static websites with HTTPS, a global CDN, and custom domains
Am I the only one who still hosts my own static sites on a plain old virtual machine?It's pretty simple to configure nginx for static sites, and by doing it yourself you reduce vendor lockin to just about nil.Even if S3 is massively cheaper, $5/month for a tiny VM seems like a small price to pay for being vendor-abstract.I suppose S3 is way less likely to suffer a meaningful outage than my little VM, but how many 9s do my personal websites actually need?
