- doublerabbit 3y agoWhich than you're back to paying $40+/year to ensure you don't get wiped from their "free" tier when they feel like it. Nothing is free forever.
- asynchronous 3y agoTrue, it is a temporary solution though to how long Cloudflare offers it.
- godzillabrennus 3y agoThey have had a free tier since they launched over a decade ago. I think they’ve found a way to monetize that traffic or at least the data they collect on the sites they proxy because it’s survived so long.
- sznio 3y agoI think it's the same model as free antivirus. Free customers provide a lot of data to analyze and detect threats, which translates into increased value of the product to the paying customers. Also gives you a lot of traffic which you can use to test new deployments without disrupting paying customers.
- smileybarry 3y agoI've been on their free tier since launch. Granted, it's nothing high-traffic, but a personal website shouldn't reach any "please upgrade" thresholds.
