We used DigitalOcean Spaces for some time, but it works very slow. Every few requests we get 500-5000ms delays. So we switched to Amazon S3 and it works much better. So when I first saw R2, I was sure we're gonna migrate as soon as we can. Post mentions that Backblaze and Wasabi offer better prices, but I couldn't find any reviews at the time when we migrated to amazon. Is it gonna work as DigitalOcean? How often there's downtime? Does anybody use them and has opinion?

We did the same transition, but from BunnyCDN (their push option) to S3, but didn't see the level of improvement we wanted. Then we tried Google Storage and hoooly crap it blows s3 out of the water. Cloudflare seems like it's the only remaining player who could compete with them on both quality/speed and price.
