Egress is free but not public i.e. you can't just give anyone an url. You have to use your own server to fetch content from R2 and then serve it to your visitor

Egress is free but not public i.e. you can't just give anyone an url. You have to use your own server to fetch content from R2 and then serve it to your visitors. Each fetch costs money but first 10 mil reads are free and your own server probably has egress fees.
- stavros 4y agoNo, egress is indeed public. Here's an example link, straight to R2: https://img.phantasmagoria.me/img/96XJrjejoHNdrQv7.jpg https://img.phantasmagoria.me/img/96XJrjejoHNdrQv7.jpg Even if you have a private bucket, you can give people a signed link with read access, for up to two weeks, IIRC.
- trinovantes 4y agoAh, I see they added public buckets last month But it'll still cost them money by number of reads
- stavros 4y agoHm, yeah, true, you do need to pay for reads, you're right.
