R2 only seems to offer better price than S3. If people using S3 were caring so much about the cost they wouldn't use S3 in the first place. So my bet is that it won't change anything for S3

I also bet it will not change anything for B2. They will still be cheaper than R2

All the alternatives for 11 9's durability object stores have similar prices to S3. There aren't any alternatives.

Wasabi gets close, but their 1:1 storage to egress ratio makes it great for backups and a small subset of use-cases, but not much else.
