Fletno. Zmaj pozdravlja nazaj.
A place I worked a few years ago used Bunny and was very happy with it.
https://european-alternatives.eu/category/managed-dns-providers I just don't think they are free like Cloudflare.
Free? That's weird. How do they make money? Does "free" just rope people in and make it harder to leave?
Cloudflare does a million things, some of them free to lure you in and then it's easy to start paying them for their other convenient features, or maybe your size grows over Cloudflare's free tier limits for some service.
Suddenly you're paying cloudflare for some services, using others for free, and realize nobody else provides everything that cloudflare does, you'd have to use a bunch of different services.
Cloudflare is in security business. They use all free users to generate traffic that comes to their network. They analyze that traffic and give ranks to user agents (IP plus some other factors).
Thanks to this they have superb WAF that is transparent for known โgood user agentsโ like your mama whoโs known for browsing some websites in their network. Sheโs showing a typical user pattern.
While your nerd friend whoโs using a niche Linux browser will be considered low rank and presented with captcha way more often. Or simply blocked if heโs using a niche VPN on a known data center IP.
Its expensive to build. Cloudflare gives free CDN + WAF.
That's the thing. Cloudflare is very attractive for small projects or prototyping, due to its free plans. But as soon as you want to do something serious, Bunny is cheaper.
