Well, it is the least evil 😝 I was tempted by Github pages because at first it seemed that I could avoid installing anything locally, but it only takes the first unexpected rendering to realize how false that promise was. So if I have to install the blog engine I prefer one written in a language I know (Python).

Have you tried Netlify? After you build the Pelican site (or any static site), you can [deploy it with a command](https://forum.codeselfstudy.com/t/netlify-cli-quickstart/1210). The hosting is free, even with a custom domain and SSL.
