Cloudflare R2 - zero egress fees.

IONOS Virtual Private Servers - $30/month - zero egress fees.

Try using Cloudflare R2 with zero egress and you'll rapidly discover there are lots of 'gotchas'... - Want to use a cloudflare managed domain - pay for egress if you have enterprise account - Want to use their 'dev' domain - rate limited

It's still a good service - but zero egress comes with conditions. The only exception I've found is Cloudflare pages which seems genuinely zero egress (as long as you don't proxy it through a managed domain).

I don’t need those things.

Sure it made me pay$5/month after some number of requests.

I don’t expect to pay nothing.

I just think 9 cents per GB for egress is robbery.

I am curious why proxying it through a managed domain incurs additional costs.
Because they can?
