Given that this uses multiple Cloudflare services, is anyone very familiar with their pricing? The readme lists a "generous free tier", but I always have to wonder what happens once you fall outside of that tier. I remember that R2 is cheap (one of its distinguishing features), but wonder if any of the other services suddenly become $50 a month or something.

op here. I've been looking for affordable hosting solution to serve multimedia files, e.g., podcast audio, which is typically the biggest part of cost for hosting. Cloudflare R2 is an attractive solution. R2 doesn't have egress fee and the free tier includes 10 million read requests/month [1]. Is 10 million a big number? Yes, at least in the podcast industry. If your podcast has 10 million listens per month (or let's…

Which one is better? AWS solutions or Cloudflare ones? In prices and performance?

Earlier quoted context omitted.

WHOIS[1] masking hides your information from the world. It's a service provided by some domain sellers who, obviously, will know those details (given them by you), as well as your financial information as you can't usually lease domains using untraceable transactions.

Thank you going to look into that!

It seems there is a growing movement of headless CMSs, but I am afraid of vendor lock-in with Cloudflare and the like. Are there any other CMS's that people are using these days? Perhaps looking forward to be using in 2023?

Strapi[0] is great and Payload[1] also looks promising. [0] https://strapi.io/ [1] https://payloadcms.com/

I'd steer away from both if you don't want data loss because neither has good migration support when changing the schema

I just use PicoCMS and upload my markdown files through FTP. I don't think there's anything out there that can compete with the simplicity of this solution, not even static site generators. It uses templates with Twig, and it's very simple PHP so you can host it anywhere. I once hit the frontpage of a big aggregator from my country and it handled like it was nothing from a very cheap shared hosting. From my Linux Min…

is picocms still a static site? cms like drupal,wordpress can control content access with password,which is where cms stands out.

Almost. It's PHP serving markdown files through twig templates, but there is no control panel or backoffice to speak of.

So you basically remove 99% of the attack surface.
