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?

I’m the developer of wishthis. What do you not trust about the auth? I try to be transparent about everything.
