I currently use cloudflare for a couple of domains to use it for dns, caching/proxying, dns challenges for letsencrypt through traefic and to only white-list certain regions and ips. I do this through the free tier.
Is there any European alternative that provides this as well? The European alter atices I’ve seen listed on sites primarily seem to focus on just CDN for enterprises.
I use it mainly as a first line security for my homelab, and a VPN isn’t an option for me.
There is https://bunny.net/pricing/ which has some features for free (dns hosting by the looks of it) but there’s no free caching which cloudflare does
As far as I know, Bunny is the only real alternative, but as you say, nothing will be as feature-full as Cloudflare.
I noticed Bunny mentioned handling abuse, I wonder how cloudflare does it, surely must be automated
This might be of interest to you:
https://european-alternatives.eu/I have already looked through sites like those and have not found viable alternatives.
Because there aren’t any.
This is a major issue with today’s internet.
It’s essential infrastructure for everyone on earth, but most of it depends on a few US corporations.
(Google, Microsoft, Amazon, Cloudflare, Meta)Yeah, if AWS and Cloudflare alone go down, most people will think the whole internet is gone.
Let’s be real - almost the whole internet will be down, then (or at least partially affected in one way or another)
