I've been looking for a new static host recently since Netlify raised prices and is terrible at preventing bot traffic. Here was my assessment of Netlify from the perspective of a small customer who just wants static hosting (and not build minutes).

Pros:

- Run by a single person, so customer service is responsive and comprehensive

- Focused mainly on static hosting without extra complexity

Cons:

- Run by a single person, so increased outage risks

- No support for MFA

- The upload process unconditionally uploads every file rather than an rsync-like sync of only the changed files, which is a pain for my large sites that only change incrementally

- Bot scraper protection is not included (they'll do it for an additional fee)

- Bundles together site builds and hosting, but I only want hosting
