Pros & Cons from Real Users Pros Pricing is cheaper than piñata. 3x copies replicated makes me feel safe. Performance for IPFS gateways is lightening fast. Image resizing is really cool. I replaced cloud flare and used their bundled cdn instead - saved me hundreds. Seemed a promising distributed storage with multiple storage options for a good price at the beginning of usage. Good documentation. Good discord support. Good storage/bandwidth price. Free edge caching service. No fees for ingress or API requests. I like easy of use, good documentation and very fast support team. I believe I found great solution for my project and hope for long term relationship. Cons None so far - haven’t seen any performance issues or downtime over the last 6 months. Bad support, some of my requests were ignored. Bad safety, your data can be lost at any time. No volume discounts to bandwidth. No CDN service(but easy to integrate with CDN services like bunny). For now, my use case was not good to find any cons :-)
