AWS and Google Cloud are not the only infrastructure providers around ya know ;). There are plenty of other superior and cheaper alternatives like Linode, Vultr, Digital Ocean, OVH, Hetzner etc.
Regrading credit card processors, I don't see why it'd be necessary for a personal website. If it's about accepting donations, one could accept cryptocurrency.
And you'll be really naive to think that Vultr/DO/OVH/... won't deplatform you like others did already. Pretty sure that if you search a bit you can find people that has been booted off them
