Keep in mind, that when you chain 5 different tools, you have 5 different single point of failures. If those tools are free, there is a pretty high chance that one of them will decide to go paid, or disappear altogether.

Agreed, but as far as I have experienced these projects are so small that they can be easily migrated, moved to a different environment. Even moved a project recently to netlify from a php server with ease.

One more thing, most of these portfolio sites die after a year because clients just forget about them and dont bother to renew their domain, I guess they make these websites just because someone else told them or due to FOMO.
