It seems like there's a lot of ways to go about this that may be overkill, so I'm curious which may avoid that.

Low maintenance in this context is aiming for moderate technical knowledge/setup, lower cost, and portability in case you need to migrate your site and so minimal hassle in that process.

Appreciate the breakdown! Ngl though you lost me at the end with the ECS container/S3 bucket stuff (as in, I dunno what ECS is, I think S3 bucket may be something akin to a VPS? but yeah), but that may just be an indicator it's much more than I'd probably need/want for my interests.

Ah sorry, I'm an SRE/Devops guy professionally so I forget that containers are still way out of folks experience range 😅
