I do have a question, is it even possible to have a CDN set up where they don't MITM and strip your TLS and re-encrypt or are we just picking which jurisdiction gets to inspect your traffic? edit: I'm thinking of the use case where the CDN as a proxy for APIs and uncachable content as well, where it used as a reverse proxy for transit/ddos protection.

I mean you can even use Cloudflare in a non-MITM manner. You lose a lot of the "value" of a CDN but they support it. Cloudflare Spectrum would be the product.

Earlier quoted context omitted.

Surely by definition, being pro-EU is automatically anti-nationalism (at least for everyone inside the EU)?

The extremists want you to believe that, but the EU is an economic alliance, not a federal republic. Being pro-EU is usually anti-isolationist, but it isn't always anti-nationalist.

> EU is an economic alliance

lol that ship sailed a long time ago it's certainly not a full federal republic but it's a lot closer to one then a mere "economic alliance".

Maybe the whole world is not in the U.S. What is the FTC? The Royal Air Force Flying Training Command?

It's pretty fair to assume someone on a USA site, run by an American company, that is a major VC firm based in San Francisco, in an article talking about moving away from another USA company that is located all of 2 miles away from ycombinator, and speaking english should be able to put 2 and 2 together when dealing with contextual information. If they can't they probably should move to an international focused site.

The author of the article is not from the US, and is talking about a Slovenian alternative to Cloudflare.

Either way, we are on the internet. Pretty international stuff.

Seemingly lacks IPv6 though? Cloudflare requires you to pay them and make an explicit effort to disable IPv6. Sad to see it not enabled by default on Bunny.

How did you determine that Bunny lacks IPv6? The CDN certainly has it: https://bunny.net/blog/ipv6-returns-to-bunnycdn/ Depending on where I query from, OP's blog does have it as well: # host jola.dev jola.dev has address 37.19.207.38 jola.dev has IPv6 address 2400:52e0:1a04::1310:1

Seems @zorked is correct about some POPs simply lacking IPv6. I simply happened to hit one of those. Quite disappointing but I guess Bunny is on the cheap side and doesn't actually own or manage their network like big CDNs do.

We at ottex.ai use bunny.net to deploy globally an openrouter like speach-to-text API (5 continents, 26 locations, idle cost 3$). Highly recommend their Edge Containers product, super simple and has nice primitives to deploy globally for a low latency workloads. We connect all containers to one redis pubsub server to push important events like user billing overages, top-ups etc. Super simple, very fast, one config to…

Are cold starts an issue?

There is no cold starts at all. It’s running non-stop.

Bunny bills per resource utilization (not provisioned) and since we run backend on Go it consumes like 0.01 CPU and 15mb RAM per idle container and costs pennies.

I reported this to HN a month ago: https://social.mikutter.hachune.net/@mok/116208294430782702 BunnyCDN intentionally mis-writes any Mastodon request signing, as to make it incompatible with Mastodon. And, they confirmed it's intentional.

Why is it intentional?

That was what the link indicated.

The user sent in a help ticket, and Bunny confirmed this response rewrite was intentional and would not fix it.

I wanted to get this out, not to conjecture as to why.

Now I'm curious, how is it called in the UK? I tend to use "FTC" as the general term when I want to refer to a trade regulatory body in a country, as in "UK's FTC equivalent". I wasn't aware it is so obscure?

the fact that you can't name the UK equivalent offhand should tell you how obscure these regional agency names and acronyms are in general.

I'm in the process of doing this for a Spanish client because of the La Liga situation. Only using edge storage, DNS, and CDN so far but very happy with Bunny.

I had not heard of the "La Liga situation", but googled and what I learned was that La Liga is a Spanish football (soccer) team, and their players did a protest action about not wanting a match to be staged in Florida, and the team owners tried to say it was an illegal strike, but a court recently disagreed and said it was protected protest.... I still have no idea what any of this has to do with any clients moving f…

Cloudflare is blocked country-wide during matches. For example https://community.cloudflare.com/t/website-inaccessible-from...

Much of the point of a CDN is that they can cache responses, and likely also make other changes. I don't see how that could be done without seeing what's inside the request.

Comparing hashes of responses without knowing what is inside wouldn’t work?

No it would not work. TLS protects against replay attacks by design, the same response (or query) in clear text will not look the same in encrypted traffic
