Ask HN: What's the move for static site hosting in 2025?

I'm talking the simplest possible minimal HTML site. Like I want to push a file called index.html and not think about it anymore -- ideally with the possibility to refine it further (add a framework or whatever)

Cloudflare Pages seems popular lately, but from a quick perusal it looks like there's an expectation you're using a framework?

Is pure hosting from S3 still a thing? I see that AWS tries to push you towards using Amplify when you setup an S3 site the old fashioned way -- does anyone actually use that? From a quick glance it seems Amplify is like a Cloudflare Pages competitor but more rough around the edges; also expects that you're using a framework

Do people still use Vercel? Are there other contenders? Is Heroku thoroughly enshittified now?

GH pages seems to no longer tolerate commercial projects[1], which is the intent here.

It feels surprisingly difficult to do this in the year of our lord 2025. I recall 7~ years ago there were lots of options for deploying with two CLI commands, but it seems like many of those are gone or overcomplicated today
