Looks great! Please make a plan how to deal with abuse; in the past, most services that provided low-friction hosting stopped being low friction (e.g. they started requiring login with a facebook account), presumably to cut down on abuse (like phishers creating lots of accounts to host phishing sites).
In the past I ended abuse by adding that recaptcha to registration form. I’m recruiting volunteer moderators as we speak :)
Earlier quoted context omitted.
lifetime for as long as the developer decides to maintain the service?
The combination of revenue between lifetime and monthly subscriptions actually far outweigh hosting costs after I hit an easily obtainable customer number. Granted I’ll need to scale my server in time this is actually a sustainable business / I understand being skeptical of “forever”. If you were paying $5 a month it would be $60 a year, in under 2 years you’re already making your money back

It’s rarely about the cost and more about the level of effort to maintain said service. Without a plan in place it’s hard to accept “it Shouldn’t lose money” as valid proof that you won’t grow bored of this in 1...2...5...10 years. Also, more lucrative things may come up and take up your time, making running this current service unappealing or impossible.
If you want to upgrade your account check out: https://pro.1mb.site - For a one-time $100 payment you’ll get access to 1MB Pro forever and help support an indie project. Monthly cost will be $5 a month when I implement my new payment processor. Until then only lifetime purchases are possible.
How do I export my content as zip to local ? Is this possible ?
What 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.

Could this be used to create a niche CRM? I've got someone asking me to develop a CRM for them in their business domain.
