Looks sweet. I might actually use this. A few questions: 1. Why a custom JS-based CLI tool for deployment? What does it do? Why not something like plain SSH?

Looks sweet. I might actually use this. A few questions:
1. Why a custom JS-based CLI tool for deployment? What does it do? Why not something like plain SSH?
2. What is the plan for this? Presumably you'll want to monetize the project? Will you ever add ads to my sites? Or will you offer premium features?
3. What's the reason for the NoSQL DB?
4. Your CLI tool only allows .png files as images. Is there a reason you don't allow any other types?
5. Is there a limit on the number of sites you can have or the storage you can use?
- 1mbsite 8y ago1. This tool allows you to deploy all files in your directory to your site. If you were using the API directly you’d need to deploy each file individually. 2. It was monetized in the past but Gumroad banned my account because they consider web hosts to be a risky business. I’m re-implementing Pro soon (more info: https://pro.1mb.site https://pro.1mb.site) 3. It just seemed like the most logical way to store and retrieve data with JavaScript. 4. It’s coded by a friend of mine but I’ll pass that feedback along! Thank you 5. Only 1 site per account. There is a 1 megabyte storage limit. I know it sounds crazy but most users don’t even come close. Pro users get 1 gigabyte.
- so_tired 8y agoCan u tell about your experience getting banned? Were u allowed to withdraw your balance? What r u switching too?
- 1mbsite 8y agoThey banned me without warning and refunded all my customers and I wasn’t impressed. After reaching out they refunded me all the money I lost though. I’m studying my choices
- homero 8y agoSftp would be incredible
- 1mbsite 8y agoFor security reasons I can’t, but I wonder if somebody could make a SFTP wrapper that uses the 1MB API.
- TheRealPomax 8y agoDude, if I just want to put a page online, the last thing I want to have to deal with is SSH... Have browser, will content.
- IgorPartola 8y agoSSH/SFTP is a standard protocol. Their API is not. Many more devices support sftp than their API. I don’t always have a browser, but I often have ssh.
