Hosting user-generated content makes it inevitable that someone will upload unsavory or even illegal content, are you using some kind image processing to identify that content proactively and flag it for review?

And best of luck in your endeavor!

Would be good to have some rationale or understanding why someone would use this other than a broad based CDN such as CloudFlare or AWS?

Are image only CDN's a sustainable market? Maybe they are, and I'm just ignorant on why websites would choose such a thing over a general CDN.

Surely if someone has enough traffic or load to require a CDN then they would want it for their whole site and not just for image resources?

Congrats on the launch. A small nit re: your pricing: you're charging for data transfer (bytes transferred over a long period of time), not bandwidth (bits transmitted at a point in time).

There is no way in hell I’m ever using something internet facing that costs me 0.1 a gig. That’s just asking for a gigantic bill because some kid decided to mess with you or someone misconfigured something

The only thing that worries me about usage-based pricing is denial of wallet attacks. You mention there won’t be any surprise bills but if someone decides to hammer my image for 85 TB worth of traffic I don’t see any mechanism that would cap my spend in any way.

Good on you to build a tool to scratch your itch!

As another poster highlighted, hosting other people's content is tricky. Its certainly not a business I would rather be in. I bet the management of this SaaS service is going to quickly take over your day job.

If you are just hosting your own content you can do it pretty cheaply using the AWS Serverless Image Handler stack:

$120/yearly, when the price is normally $10/month, is not 2 months free xD

HN "Hug of Death" happening?

No DMCA report button... this is going to be interesting.

interesting, is this an interface on top of BunnyCDN? Would they be cheaper than Cloudflare image CDN?
