if you're expecting more bursty traffic coming your way from reddit or HN, it might be best to deploy a static site out to something like Vercel, GitHub Pages, Cloudflare Pages, Netlify, et cetera. it's not really as easy as running from a WordPress instance but it'll better handle these sort of events. DigitalOcean's App Platform supports static sites too.
