Useful for proof of concepts & private content. I'm wondering, for public static content, do anyone use webservers these days when CDNs are available as a service?

That "somewhere" can either be another cloud service dedicated to static sites such as Netlify, GitHub Pages, CloudFlare Pages; a general purpose storage service such as AWS S3; a "serverless" service running on something like AWS Lambda or Fly.io; or even a self-hosted Linux server (running on hardware or as a VM in a IaaS provider such as Linode). Kawipiko tries to solve the last two scenarios, when one wants to serve the content from a self-hosted VM.
