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…

La Liga is the national soccer organisation, which organizes the championship. They force the ISPs to block Cloudflare during games to block illegal streaming websites. But then it blocks a lot of websites that have nothing to do with it, and there are games fairly often.

Aha, that's a different La Liga situation! Wow, that's wild!

Logically, the only thing CloudFlare would do is lower or eliminate the free usage tier. For instance, if X million operations are currently free, they make X/2 operations free. I don't think they would do that, but if they did, it couldn't possibly be existential to any viable company. Practically, any metered supplier can put you out of business. It usually doesn't happen because destruction is mutually assured. +1…

Except for those cases where CF sales have threatened to kick businesses off the platform unless they join an five or six figure enterprise plan because they've passed some unpublished threshold.

Pushing 10TB of data on the free plan is the moral equivalent of taking 100 packets of free ketchup from a restaurant. Both will rightly get you kicked out.

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.

Are they using C# on their servers? Not Windows I hope?

I’ve mainly been using cloudflare for the very excellent (and free) premium DNS offering. Easy upload of bind test files Flattened CNAME to support naked domains Robust free role based permissions to add other ppl Anyone have suggestions for moving a stack of domains, many being little community and hobby projects away from cloudflare for a small overall price. Agency pricing like migadu offers for email on custom do…

I've tested just about every DNS provider I could find. Self-hosting and Bunny aside, my needs are especially well met by CloudDNS and LuaDNS. https://www.cloudns.net/premium/ https://www.luadns.com/pricing.html I've found every other offering to be lacking. Some examples: Cloudflare is alright but has settings footguns if you're not used to Their Way of Doing It™ (e.g., before using DNSControl, I had to manually fli…

I think you're right about dnsimple tokens unless they've changed recently. I ended up writing a proxy that held the powerful token and then issued its own tokens to get around that... A bit convoluted

Annoying for dynamic DNS and DNS ACME challenges where you want a server to manage its own records and nothing else

Their web site left me with a bad taste. I want to like them but… No front page pricing. Popups obscuring screen, with no options I agree with. Standard safari shows blank page for products. Cute images that overwhelm content. How many sign up for free prompts are enough?

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…

That's inspirational. Do you perhaps have an architectural writeup somewhere?

Huh? I'm not seeing any popups except the cookie banner at the bottom of the screen.

Pricing link is the second one in the top menu, and it shows all prices in a straightforward way.

Nope, but I will think about this, thank you for the idea. Maybe it's time to start a technical blog for ottex
