Egress costs are only expensive if you're paying the artificially high mega cloud corp's inflated pricing. I've yet to pay for bandwidth for any servers on Hetzner or for Cloudflare's services.

Yep still the biggest leachers. Token hires and flowery PR campaigns doesn't entitle them to most of the profits of other vendors products or absolve them of their predatory behavior. But they wont be able to leech Redis's future

AWS are the largest leeches of OSS, syphoning off most the profits and contribute relatively nothing back towards the OSS projects they rent seek from. The "Free for all except mega cloud corps" license changes are to disrupt this

The licensing change only applies to their future versions which they own all contributions of which AWS won't be allowed to leech off anymore.

We're also defaulting to using SQLite first for our new Apps with Simplicity, Speed, Cost and flexibility being the motivating factors. Not needing a managed database also allows us to move away from AWS onto much better value Hetzner

I'm a happy Affinity Customer thanks to their low cost perpetual licenses and quality software, hoping that none of that changes - don't use it nearly enough to justify maintaining a subscription.

Build Quality refers to how well a piece of equipment has been made [1]. The Surface's tablet has a sleek design with a great construction, uses quality materials and a quality finish that feels like a slab of luxury aluminum and glass

Good build quality but unreliable. Bought a Surface, used it rarely, tried to pass it on to my eldest but it refused to start within 12 months.

Good, most value in OSS is being syphoned off by the mega corp cloud vendors which contribute nothing back to the maintainers of the OSS products they're charging rent for. That's not a sustainable relationship for a healthy OSS p

I also take advantage of their free services and only pay for R2 on Cloudflare since it's the best value managed provider I could find. I prefer to keep my App's stateless and running in Docker containers which means storing all u

More reasons why I avoid clouds with outrageous bandwidth fees, and prefer Hetzner's low cost fixed pricing with Cloudflare R2's 0 egress fees. Even if the DDoS wasn't caught by Cloudflare, the total cost for 192TB bandwidth
