If you think this is simply "hosting" then you're out of touch with why it's interesting. Instead of being served from a central server ala a VPS or colocated box, or even a central server augmented with a CDN, it is instead served from a ton of geographically-local servers. Oh yeah, and it starts at free, with unlimited bandwidth. This is without getting into Workers et al.
Not a GitHub Pages user, also not a Palemoon user, so couldn't say, but Palemoon is niche. There's not even an official macOS version.

I'd agree about it being revolutionary if it was on some distributed p2p network like freenet, torrent, ipfs etc. But to call some company doing things in a slightly different manner a new era? Come on
- hammyhavoc 5y agoI said "interesting", not "revolutionary", to my knowledge anyway. If I did say "revolutionary", even I don't agree with me.
