Does Tiiny Host support .htaccess files?

No. An .htaccess file won't do anything on Tiiny Host.

.htaccess is a configuration file for Apache web servers — it handles redirects, access rules and URL rewriting. We don't run Apache; we serve static files directly, so there's nothing to read the file.

Uploading one won't break anything. It simply has no effect.

What people usually want it for, and what to do instead

Redirects — Create a redirect page instead. See How to create a redirect link.
Password protection — Built in, no config file needed. Solo plan and above. See How to password protect your project.
Removing .html from URLs — Done with folder structure. See How can I remove the ".html" ending from my link?
Custom error pages — Supported on the Solo plan and above, set from your project settings rather than a config file.
