For security reasons I can’t, but I wonder if somebody could make a SFTP wrapper that uses the 1MB API.
What security reasons? You can totally have a secure sftp endpoint on your filehost.

#152Side note, your footer on mobile is missing some items unless you release you can swipe across - which is not obvious.

#153Love the simplicity and custom domains. I often use glitch [1] but will give 1MB a go as custom domains is difficult with Glitch. Side note, your footer on mobile is missing some items unless you release you can swipe across - which is not obvious. [1] https://glitch.com

#154What can you really do with 1 megabyte? Clearly nothing serious. Why suggest it's free then? Neocities provides 1GB which is actually a relevant amount.
A ton. It's more than enough.
What can one do with 140 character limits?

#155I want to upgrade and support this project. But I am not sure if this is a scam :) should I wait before doing this ? Any thoughts ?

#156A small comment: In the 'Edit Site' page, the preview is reloading with every keystroke. Would it be better to make it refresh on the click of a button?

#157Awesome service! Thanks for making it available. A small comment: In the 'Edit Site' page, the preview is reloading with every keystroke. Would it be better to make it refresh on the click of a button?

Nice to hear! Sounds like you have a great product AND a plan :)
Pro launched! :)

You should really consider having Pro not being a onetime fee, but rather a monthly subscription, or at the very least both options. A single one time $100 fee is unlikely to go well with most users, but many more would be ok with contributing $5 or so a month if it meant supporting a good service.

Alright I found the link. OVH’s 10MB plan only has 1 GB of monthly bandwidth while 1MB’s is unmetered (fair use - don’t abuse). OVH’s 10MB plan doesn’t give you access to a database while 1MB gives you access to a secure NoSQL database. In closing they have more storage but they make up for that by taking away some core functionality that 1MB offers. https://www.ovh.co.uk/domains/start10m_hosting_offer.xml
Soft promises ("unlimited, don't abuse") make me nervous because they are not clear. Is making the front page of HN and doing 50gb in one day "abuse"?
But if you're hitting the frontpage twice a month, probably time to pay for a plan.
