Where to host a personal site (lemmy.ca)

I'm considering creating another personal website, but for more formal things like writing articles and programming updates, as opposed to the usual blog stuff I have on my Neocities site. It'll also have a simpler design, optimised more for reading than having a fun appearance.

Unless the generic domain is particularly nice, I'll buy a domain from Namecheap; but Neocities requires a subscription in order to use a custom domain, so does anyone have any suggestions for cheap or free web hosting that I could use?

I might go for Codeberg Pages, or join a pubnix/tilde. Really, all I need is a gigabyte or two of space, and the site just needs to be rich text with a bit of CSS to make it palatable to the modern eye. Support for the Gemini protocol would also be nice, but that's not a deal-breaker by any stretch.

As an advocate of open-source software, I would insist on publishing any source code I write.
