I hope a solution materializes eventually.
- mkal_tsr 12y agoNow you can contact Github with this announcement and voice your concerns. Now they have more incentive to change it (if people actively voice their issues to Github).
- kmfrk 12y agoI don't have the best experience with submitting feedback to GitHub and getting good responses, so hopefully someone like @konklone can make that case to them - again.
- bobfunk 12y agoIt's still expensive to offer SSL when you have a CDN in front unless you go with just SNI support (which could cost a significant portion of your visitors). We have CDN backed HTTPS for custom sites on BitBalloon (https://www.bitballoon.com https://www.bitballoon.com) if you're interested in a Github pages alternative that supports SSL.
- bigiain 12y agoYup - Akamai must be rubbing their hands in glee at this announcement. I've already started the conversations here about how much this is going to cost for big CDN hosted projects...
