Webflow says 2TB of bandwidth is worth $1,250 per month - Lemmy.World

Webflow got caught with its hand in the cookie jar and wants to settle disputes quietly.

I pay $60 A YEAR for my VPS that has 2TB of bandwidth a month.
I’m not refuting that the price is ridiculous, but shat you have there is just one VPS with single point of presence and single point of failure. Hopefully (seeing the provider wants to charge absurd amount of money for 2TB) there’s a much more robust infrastructure distributed globally for better performance and uptime than a single VPS.
So for that price I spin up 20 instances with failover, load balancing, and use an external DNS provider. Even with the price differentials between different vps providers, it still doesn’t math. They’re treating their customers like pork barrels.

They also have support included.

Their primary customers are businesses, so pork barrels is right. If you’re just running a blog, a VPS or even shared hosting is a far better choice.

Ahhh the part I completely overlook, Support.
