- Is dreamhost good if your site is mostly static
by /u/Hil-Skips on July 16, 2026 at 9:02 pmmost hosting discussions always seem to turn into wordpress, caching, plugins and updates but thats not really what i need. the site im helping put together is pretty simple. it will mostly have a few pages, a contact form and maybe a small storefront later. i noticed dreamhost has an ai website builder called remixer that creates static sites instead of pushing you toward wordpress, and that actually seems like a better fit for this project. how has it held up over time? did the simpler approach end up being enough or did you eventually wish you started with wordpress instead? im more interested in the long-term experience than how quickly you can get the site online. submitted by /u/Hil-Skips [link] [comments]
- I am looking for reliable, affordable hosting for a civic reporting web app — advice welcomeby /u/ExplorerReality on July 16, 2026 at 12:52 pm
I’ve built a complete anonymous reporting system that allows users to report what’s happening in their community (with pictures, videos and sound recordings) to various categories: crime, education, religion, conflict, etc. Reports are not published until they’ve been reviewed. Tech stack: Frontend: React (Vite) Backend: Python (FastAPI) Database: PostgreSQL Currently hosted on: Frontend → Cloudflare Pages (free, works great) Backend → Render free tier (sleeps after 15 mins — using UptimeRobot as a workaround) Database → Supabase free tier (occasionally pauses) The problem: The Render and Supabase free tier is not suitable for a public platform. I want something more solid. What I need: Backend hosting that stays awake 24/7 Persistent PostgreSQL database that doesn’t pause or expire File storage for media uploads (photos, videos, documents) Budget: under $20/month ideally, but open to paying more if justified Any advice from people running similar community or tech projects is appreciated even if it requires rebuilding the project in another language. I am open in as much it is a constructive one. submitted by /u/ExplorerReality [link] [comments]
