Any plans to switch to R2? It’s cheaper than S3 and would run in network with Cloudflare, allowing Supabase to take advantage of the CDN more optimally over tim

  It's one of the storage providers we'll investigate, now that R2 is GA. Our Storage server is hosted on AWS, so it wouldn't immediately save money (at least for egress) but we'll also investigate moving the servers to another cloud provider.

    Could this eventually be pluggable with bring-your-own s3-compatible provider? Would love this in front of my DigitalOcean object storage

      yes definitely. It should be easy to add s3-compatible providers (which are numerous, since s3 seems to be the defacto file storage API now). We haven't added "BYO" functionality to our hosted Platform because, frankly, we already spend a lot of time debugging various quirks and network issues - even for infra which we provide. Adding an extra level of opaqueness at our current team size would be very stressful from a support-perspective. That said, we're designing/developing so that it's possible and we'll continue to assess as the team grows.
