- Firebase hosting: by Google with a free tier

- Google Cloud web hosting: this website is hosted on Google Cloud. More information can be found in ☁️ Google Cloud Hosting.
Throughout time this blog has been hosted on many different platforms:
- Blogger: the easiest free platform to host a blog that I knew of when starting
- WordPress (hosted on Dreamhost): it’s a bigger and more well-known platform, so seemed like an obvious next step. It also provided more freedom and it’s when I first got my own domain name.
- Google Cloud: it offered a free tier, making it cheaper than WordPress, and I wanted more customization.
