This one is my fav 🧡
Cloudflare forwards all incoming emails from any of my domain inbox to a single gmail.
E.g. you can email me at alex(@)isora.me or dsa123(@)isora.me and i will receive those.
I was too lazy to set up an S3 image storage for startupswiki.org and got charged $29 for AWS EC2 traffic in March.
Fixed that by setting up image caching in Cloudflare. Now all images are stored there, and I pay pennies to AWS (sorry, Jeff! 😎).
You can host your simple html+css+images site there for free.
I host saas.page there.
I like it because it is as simple as drag and drop a zip.
Yes, I know about github pages, but I'm too lazy to configure git, okay 😁
Technically, Cloudflare is the cheapest domain registrar in the world! They charge no extra fee besides the ICANN's base price. So it is $10.44/y for a dotcom.
I like it so much I pushed it on the first place on my directory domainregistrarslist.com 😁
I use it to protect uploadfile.click from bots. It was an easy walk installing it with Cursor AI (God bless vibe coding! 🙂)
Caches a static version of a website so it is available in case of an origin server downtime.
Very useful when you have 20+ websites to take care of 🥴
Cloudflare R2 is a free AWS S3 alternative. It costs $0 per GB of bandwidth. I like this type of pricing models 😁
I use it to store static files and user uploads for @paracast_io and as the main storage for uploadfile.click
Clunky and inaccurate. But it works! 😁
If you are too lazy setting up analytics, and you just need the basic numbers, use this! No scripts, no sign-ups. Just click a button and start gathering visits.
Thanks for reading my post about CF!
