I am too old school so I never used AWS, S3 or similar stuff. All I need is a virtual private server, put Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) on it and configure as needed. Nowadays with containers and podman. I also backup everything to my server at home (a HP Microserver with 12TB RAID, running, you guessed it, RHEL). For code I have a container running #Forgejo. My websites are static pages I create and update with Jekyll. Sure, I am a nerd. But I am really happy that I can do this all this way.

All my domains (20+) are at a EU based registrar (Hosting Concepts B.V. via cloudz.be).
Both my public servers are at EU based hosting companies (netcup and OVH).
My Nextcloud based sharespace (think: dropbox) is at a EU based hosting company (Hetzner).
This is nothing new.. Has been like that since 20+ years. I always wanted to have my digital life close to me, meaning under EU jurisdiction.
(I am not telling you to do as I do, I'm sharing my setup as a FYI)
