I gone through a lot of hosting service providers and unfortunetly cannot find a single one that can be used without running nonfree programs, all of them require loading bulky JavaScript apps.
I know of Codeberg Pages for example, but it is not suitable for business use.
I’m with OVH and Kimsufi and I don’t know what you’re even talking about. Do other providers make you install something locally?
Major browsers are downloading and running programs automatically in the background without knownleage of user. If you block this those sites won’t work, because those websites are just blank and you actually run an app.
Your problem is that there is JS code running in a browser?
The way they describe it has me baffled. At first I assumed they were referring to PaaS like Heroku or Vercel and somehow weren’t aware they could just get a barebones Linux VPS.
But no, going by the response they’re complaining because VPS provider websites require JavaScript to function?
OP you know you can clear cache after and bam, all the locally cached JavaScript in your browser is gone.
If you do happen to be referring to PaaS solutions, just go barebones and use SSH to connect and configure it.
Nice to see you here, Mr. Stallman.
You can use Ansible to create domain names and register URLs on most popular hosting providers/registrars.
You shouldn’t avoid platforms just because they have non-free websites, that’s extreme bro.

Yeah. The idea of not using a domain registrar because they optimize for the 90% use case (web management) seems pretty extreme to me. But if OP is against web sites, I don’t know how they’ll read the docs for something like using Terraform to manage domains at Cloudflare. It is an option but it’s also the 10% use case.
Heck, if you want to really want to be a luddite you could use the raw API! :) Most hosting platforms/registrars can be commanded with just curl.

Not quite sure what you’re looking for, but I think Dreamhost can just hand you an Ubuntu box you can SSH or SFTP to to manage your site.
