Amazing! Will definitely use this information for my author side.

I have no programming skills and always wanted to have a self hosted website that is quick, small, without any fluff where people can download my stories. Maybe to interact with me and with each other too. End of story.

But when I googled "website programming" it's mostly generic advice for design (everything looks like everything else) and bloated (slow) code.

You might want to look at some "elder self-hosting sites" (i.e pre f*book) like https://www.dreamwidth.org where you could easily set up an internet presence without fluff.

you don't need programming skills to self-host. most hosts offer one-click website options for e.g. wordpress
