Durable objects seem so cool but the pricing always scares me. (Specifically, having to worry about getting hibernation right.) They’d be a great fit for our yjs document based strategy, but while everything in prod still works on plain ol redis and Postgres, it’s hard to justify an exploration.

Does CloudFlare have proper spending caps? If they have, I'd be open to try DOs but if they don't, it's a non-starter for an indie dev as I can't risk bankruptcy due to a bad for loop.

It's not just the listed prices either. There was a story here not long ago where they essentially requested someone to migrate to an enterprise plan or get out. With AWS it's pretty common to get a refund for accidental abuse. From my contact so far and from stories here, I wouldn't expect anything close to that treatment from CF.
