I'm not even sure what are the target demographic for this looks like. For builders there are much cheaper options out there with better quotas. Currently the Pro plan gives you 50 GB for $15 and I'm unsure if this is a great deal at all.

50 TB

yes but only 10M requests

No always on server. Only serverless. If you are starting a new project, I think having a server is better than serverless. With serverless, you'll have to stitch together more 3rd party services to do basic things such as websocket, queue, DB connection pool, etc.

Why would you need an always-on server for a simple web page?

How many visitors do you actually think you’ll get?

Point is 50TB isn't the limit. It's 50TB or 10M requests. Visitors aren't relevant.
