Is there a good alternative to github pages? I need just a static website up.

  • I have a domain.
  • I have my site (local machine)
  • And that’s all I have.
  • I have a machine that could be running 24/7 too.

      In what way? Anything on the public internet is likely being used for AI training. I guess by using free GitHub you can’t object to training.

      Then again anywhere you host you sort of run into the same problem. You can use robots.txt, but things don’t have to listen to it.

        Self-hosting there are some ways to fight back, or depending on your opinions on Cloudflare it seems they’re fairly effective at blocking the AI crawlers.

          Yep, on top of simply blocking, if you’re self hosting or using cloudflare, you can enable AI tarpits.
