What are my best options for hosting a static site on Australian servers?

Previously I was using a normal web hosting service but they don’t work very well with static site generators and are usually overpriced for what I want.

Ideally I’d like a service like Cloudflare pages or GitHub pages, etc., i.e. there is good integration with git as my site is generated using Hugo.

    Hmm, I’m not sure what law that is or what specific content you’re referring to, but it seems fairly counterintuitive. There’s a lot of content both featuring and targeted at children (including Australian children) on Facebook, YouTube, and other non-Australian websites.

      I’m not sure about it either, but I heard about it from someone who works in school IT so I’d figure they know. There’s probably exemptions for social media, since they’re all run by large powerful offshore companies

        Hmm. Could be that there are specific rules for educational institutions that require data be stored onshore. I can’t see our political landscape carving out an exemption to be friendly to social media.
