I love this so much. I would be so happy if this kicked off another round of blogs and brought us back to the sharing economy.

#62Earlier quoted context omitted.
I’ve been running 1MB for over half a year and it’s my passion project. I’m constantly improving and adding new features to it. 1MB makes money from Pro upgrades it’s just temporarily unavailable. I want to run this project for years to come. https://pro.1mb.site
half a year isn't /that/ long. I do wish for you to succeed, so I'll keep my fingers crossed! ;-)
All companies start at 1 day old. 1MB isn’t going anywhere.

#63This looks super cool! And I love that this is run by an indie dev and not some VC-backed startup or big corporation. Definitely bookmarking this so that I can come back to it and see what I can build once I have time.
Thank you! :)

Thank you! :) that would be awesome and anything is possible when it’s this easy to get online

#65Any sort of git/GitHub integration features (or planned) ? Eg, I saw mention of code/theme editor, and working git into that would make some sense.
How would that Git implementation look to you?
In the GitHub integration, it could watch for changes in a repository (there's a webhook for that) and then 1mbsite would fetch the files and deploy them.
Git integration is like Heroku. The user types `git push 1mbsite master` and 1mbsite would publish it.

“Securely access a NoSQL database using nothing but JavaScript
With permissions, enforced fields, and the ability to get the logged in 1MB username you can easily create a dynamic application. Check out chat.1mb.site and forum.1mb.site which are both applications that utilize a 1MB database.

#68I don't know why everyone is being so negative in the comments so far. It's really discouraging to other people who want to share something they made. It makes me sad. OP: This is cool. It's not meant to replace Netlify or GH Pages or a million other things, and I understand that. Some people just want to make something and you made something. You've done more than so many people here by just releasing something and…
I hear ya. The tone / atmosphere on HN can be underwhelming at times.
One of the main reasons I show up here is to see what others are charing. That said, those doing Show HN should probably scan some other Show HN's to get a sense of what people are looking for.
- What is it? High level. - Why should I care? That is, what's in it for me. - Along the same lines, benefits (not features) - What is it? Deeper, the technology behind it. - What makes it different (and perhaps better)? - If it free, assure me (or not) I'm not the product. - Along the same lines, be upfront about what you might do - or not - with any data using the product might provide. - Why? Why did you do this? There's a difference between launching some cookie cutter product and a side project for learning / exploring.
When I get around to it, I'm going to do a proper blog post on this list.

#69Love it, but one suggestion:
I'd change the headline to "1MB – Free and easy static website hosting and database".
That database is the edge you have compared to Netlify and Github pages people are asking for :)
The authentication part is a nice touch, too. Feels more like a community thing.
Checked out the API and you even have easy to setup database permissions. I like it.

Questions: do you plan to offer paid plans for people wishing to host more than 1MB, or having paid support? Maybe paid private login workspaces and SSO could be a paid feature too.

Thank you! :) Pro members get 1GB of storage and some other features: https://pro.1mb.site (coming soon)
