How do you host your side projects? Cloud, VPS or dedicated?


Is it really necessary to host your side projects with a cloud provider? Or is a dirt cheap VPS the better option? Are you worried about Cloud incurring massive bills?

I have a couple of side projects that are non-commercial / hobby type that I found GitHub pages to be suitable and sufficient since I was using pure HTML/CSS/Javascript for the app. So, it really depends on the tech stack you are using. If you need to provision non-trivial infrastructure, cloud or VPS might be better suited.
