#2I throw everything I experiment with at Cloudflare, including my personal website and the family’s Internet stuff (websites, etc). None of them is commercial. Cloudflare tells me that it served 68.44 GB in the last 30 days, and the Invoice was ZERO.
I’ve been looking for an extra-cheap CDN, and I’m not so worried about high uptime. I’m not yet ready to cough up the cost for Cloudflare R2 and AWS CloudFront, though it’s not costly, but I’m still in that cheap-feeling phase and not ready to offload over 100GB of files to the public while paying a price.
I looked at Bunny CDN a while back, but I remember thinking that the minimum was like ~$50. What did I miss? I dismissed it as non-personal option.

You wouldn't pay like anything for that on Cloudflare R2. You get 10GB and $0.015/GB (so what... like a dollar or something?) for anything over + free egress.

Yeah Ha! I saw that from this article and signed up. I even did the Card Verify thingy for $30 additional Credit. Will be trying this out and also do a comparison with Cloudflare R2.

Does it? Those provide dynamic compute for e.g. SSR, not hosting static sites. The equivalent here is more like S3 + Cloudflare (Cloud Connector and some rules). Which is free for most use cases and (IMO) pretty easy.

SSR == server-side rendering

I’ve come past way beyond the 1st year honeymoon with AWS.
Edit:
I’m sorry but I’m today years old learning that AWS indeed is free-ish, “Data Transfer from AWS Regions to the Internet is now free for up to 100 GB of data per month (up from 1 GB per region).”
“Data Transfer from Amazon CloudFront is now free for up to 1 TB of data per month (up from 50 GB), and is no longer limited to the first 12 months after signup.”
Now, I need to figure out why am I being billed each month for some of the files I use AWS for!

The CloudFront free tier runs indefinitely.
