Try telling my mom to do that or my friend who is a landscaper. Not everyone is technical. GitHub pages are also tied to your account.

No, GitHub pages are tied to "an" account. It can be a secondary "anonymous" account. You can create an anonymous bear blog or one of the other million free writing and zero maintenance tools. It's certainly more anonymous than having to disclose your real identity via a credit card on a random person's page.

Also, what sort of content do you hope that your target audience (Bob the landscaper who is non technical but has a super urgent desire to send a message to the world in an anonymous way) will publish?

Yeah but would I tell my mom to pay a dollar on this site? Would she trust it? Does she need a website or does an email/google doc satisfy her needs. What are the use cases for entirely anonymous sites that you have in mind?
