Hosting a public wishlist - eviltoast

I’m involved with an org that needs to set up a public wishlist for supplies for a project. The rough requirements are as follows:

  • Public webpage with a static URL
  • Can be easily edited by non-technical people
  • Editing requires authentication
  • Avoiding corporate services, especially avoiding tracking of both users and admins
  • As cheap as reasonably possible
  • As quick to set up as possible

Nice to have:

  • Hosted under a custom domain
  • Supports users “reserving” items so multiple people don’t all supply the same stuff

One option I considered would be running something like wishthis in a VPS under our own domain, but this is kinda expensive, complex, and I don’t trust wishthis’ auth. A different option could be just having a static page in something like Notion or Github pages, which would be free but relies on corporate services we don’t trust.

Is there a middle ground between the two previous options? Or a better solution that fits most of the requirements?

      It’s pretty overkill for what we need, and it would still fall under “corporate” for us. At that point I could just go for the static Notion page which I can get live in 5m for free.
