Yes. Many others are free with no $1 minimum (e.g. Cloudflare)
I wanted to give Cloudflare a go, but I did not want to move my whole domain. Unfortunately you can only host a subdomain with a paid account.

The one dollar thing isn’t as bad in practice as it sounds since it covers everything. Basically invoice minimum across everything so if you’re using the platform in any meaningful way it’s a non issue
The 1 dollar thing, I think, looks exceptionally bad because it shows that what Bunny says can't be taken at face value. The fact is we're here because they posted a blog talking about how great they are making DNS free "because a faster internet won’t build itself". But now I've just learnt from comments on HN that Bunny DNS isn't free. They've lost my trust before they even had it.

#95Kudos to the BunnyNet team! I've always looked for a EU based alternative to Cloudflare; not because I didn't like them, I still support Cloudflare and they're a great company, but pushing for and testing EU services is important particularly in the light of recent developments in EU-US geopolitics. The problem is that many European companies aren't as competitive as their US counterpart. Consider Hetzner as an examp…
> I'm not choosing BunnyNet because it's european, I'm choosing it because it's a good company that is providing a good service. That sounds like a GPT trope, and seems a slightly weird thing to say: the only reason I thought you might be choosing it because it was European was because your entire comment talked about how you were looking for EU alternatives, and how Bunny is better than other European alternatives.…

this might be a case of AI feedback, where people have been exposed to so much AI writing that they are starting to write like AI themselves.

I agree! It might even be an issue on my side, where I'm exposed to AI generated stuff that often that everything starts looking like a trope when it's not. Either way, I've seen more than enough in this comment section to make me want to avoid bunny for now anyway.

What is comparable to Hetzner in price/scale/features?
If you want very small servers: either get a 7$/yr vps or (upcloud if all you want is 1gb ram/1core esq server for very lightweight purposes) The thing after Hetzner's price increase is that there isn't one size fits all anymore and I guess it might not impact people like me who knows in my opinion, many providers but in this situation its a net loss for many who might be paying higher prices. So here is my small lis…
