Determine hosting plan

[BigLep]

Current Situation:
We are currently using Fleek for hosting lotus.filecoin.io. Fleek has announced that they will discontinue their free hosting plan effective April 17th, transitioning to a paid service model.

Action Required:
We need to decide whether to upgrade our current Fleek account to the Pro Plan or explore alternative hosting solutions.

@rjan90 : I don't know more of the details here and the costs, but my default would be to stay/pay with Fleek assuming:

1. Cost is "low" (less than $20 a month?). I know that is still expensive for our needs, but I don't think it's worth our time right now to optimize penny squeezing here.
2. Fleek is still using interplanetary technologies behind the scenes (e.g., CIDs, IPFS).

Me and @BigLep synced on this verbally in our 1:1 sync on 2025-04-10, and determined that at least in the short term it does not seem right to optimize penny squeezing here. We believe that paying $15 per month, even if it's solely for hosting lotus.filecoin.io, is justified.

Closing as we have upgraded to the Pro-plan.
