lambda functions are arguably a lot simpler and easier to toss in the static site mix than a server properly configured for cgi.

you are definitively not on shared hosting webspace, are you?

What is your baseline and how is that simpler?

[throwthere]

These kinds of static sites are generally served from a shared host like GitHub Pages, Netlify, etc. The baseline is configuring Jeykyll or whatever the first time.

imo lambda/serverless can get overdone and too complicated but it works well for one-off services like this.

ah - I would never have thought of putting something that invites comments on a web space with TOS of e.g. github.

You want a custom domain anyway, don't you? The space won't be an issue then, is it?
