I've been a long-time Cloudflare user, but sometimes I just want a global load balancer without the lock-in and with full configuration control (e.g., some Cloudflare rules require an enterprise plan).

I love Caddy for its easy configuration, and that's why I created Novnaode. It makes it easy to launch hosted Caddy instances (with Nginx coming soon) and puts you fully in control of how to manage the configurations.

No more being restricted by enterprise tiers or limited configuration options - just simple, powerful, and flexible global load balancing.

Check it out here: https://novanode.sh

This is excellent, but I'm not following how the multi-region deployments work. Is Anycast involved in this somehow?

We're hosted on HN darling, Fly.io. Multi region instances come with a anycast IP
