Social media is an example of a website with dynamic content and Ebay is an e-commerce example; they all have data that is changing constantly. They wouldn't work well as JAMStack as you'd have to trigger a rebuild every time someone makes a bid or creates an auction.

That's not to say you can't have the best of both worlds. Almost every application I've built in the passed two years has made use of SSR and Static.

And what would you choose from assistance such as gatsby but to build a mainly dynamic website?

SSG is not recommended where content is dynamic. you should go with SSR instead
