Question by Meklar:
What is a good free web host?
A couple months back, my account on 110mb.com was suspended (apparently for no good reason; I was given no warning, notification or explanation). Accordingly, I would now like to find a new host for my personal site, and I am wondering if anyone knows of any good ones. My site will mostly be for linking together places I go on the World wide web and artistic things I have made and want to share, so that they can all be accessed from a single central location.

Things I completely need:
- Is free to use.
- Has reasonable storage and bandwidth.
- No intrusive forced advertisements (popups, noisy Flash ads, or anything which interferes with my own code).
- Grants uploading reasonably big files (at least several MB).
- Has reasonably fast loading speeds and reasonably low downtime.
- Grants scripts, including hit counters and game scripts.
- Grants minimally mature (PG-13) content both on-site and in links and embeds.
- Grants non-commercial derivative/fair use content.

Things I would also like to have:
- Has big storage and bandwidth.
- No forced advertisements.
- No file size limit.
- Has a reasonably concise address scheme.

Things I completely do not care about at all:
- Templates, pre-scripts, or setup wizards.
- On the web WYSIWYG editors.
- Paid premium options.
- Allowing highly mature (X or NC-17) content.

So does anyone happen to know of a decent host that fits all these requirements?
