Tell HN: Netlify changing Starter plan

It's not unreasonable, however 30 days seems a bit on the short side. I have 15+ repos that I'll need to review. Another thing that would be nice is if the affected sites would be tagged in the Netlify dashboard or mentioned in the email. That would make the review process a bit easier

I’ll be moving my admittedly small projects to CloudFlare Pages. I find it slightly disingenuous that Netlify still promote the free plan on their website without mentioning the public git requirement.

Pro plan is $19/month (https://www.netlify.com/pricing/). As a business we have 5 static websites with them. It's reasonable and we will upgrade without looking around. The feature that brought us to Netlify was being able to set additional HTTP headers (via a configuration file). We don't use or need any of the other pro features (extra build minutes, more bandwidth). To us it was clear the free plan we used wouldn't last.

I always found the pricing per seat to be weird for a CDN, we will move our stuff to render.com as it offers the same basic features for much cheaper.

Its 100% fair wanting companies to pay however the notice isn't enough. I just use Netlify for a basic landing page to link to my linkedin / github etc on my personal domain...

Its kinda annoying having to have this repo public, so i'm most likely moving this to s3/CloudFront since AWS offers 1TB free.

I host several sites on Netlify and will likely move the one that doesn’t qualify for free tier over to another provider.

I like their service but I paid for analytics for a while through them and didn’t find it worthwhile, so I will probably not want to pay for the one site that needs it when I can host elsewhere for cheaper now.

Reasonable to try to make companies pay.
