What microsite costs $120/yr in electricity to run?

Mine, almost :)

Actually around $60, and I have more services on it, not just the site.

You know a site like this can be entirely static and hosted for free with github pages, gitlab pages, netlify, vercel, or any other free static site host.

Likely a digital ocean droplet, or other vps for $5-10 per month. Except neither of those Integrate with notion.

10$/month is 120$/year. Plus you have to do more work on top of that to actually build the site and integrate with a CMS.

Notion users will be in for a nasty surprise when they realize that DO is closer to a Raspberry Pi than a OEM PC.

All you get is a barebones OS without a GUI. You have to set up everything yourself: server (e.g. Apache), language (e.g. PHP), database and SSL. This is a non-starter for people that have never seen a command line interface before.

Ever heard of Wix?Square space? Netlify?
