DigitalOcean Drain

• 1 Droplet (lucario.entropynet.net)
• 2 Spaces (assets.pup.cloud, cdn.pup.cloud)
• 10 domains (maff.fur, prpl.run, pup.casa, pup.cloud, puppy.network, queer.party, wuf.one, wuff.site, wuff.top, zune.social)

Have reached out to Sadiq to see if the node is still in use - putting together plan on the presumption that it is.

• hetzner VM hosting iirc was like 9eur
• exoscale - min. 6.26eur
• linode nanode 1gb - 5usd
• vultr - 3.50usd

Must be S3-compatible even though S3 fucking sucks. Advantage goes to multi-protocol services.

• Backblaze b2 (advantage: already have an account there, seems cheapest - 6.95usd per tb)
• UpCloud (advantage: similar to digitalocean spaces, flat fee of 5eur for first 250gb)
• IBM object storage ironically might be competitive lmfao (app. £4.56 a month for 250gb and reasonable read/write and egress)
• Akamai CDN perhaps? similarly competitive on price, bandwidth seems fine (0.02usd per gb works out to 5usd for 250gb, egress is free up to 1tb)
• iDrive e2 is like six dollars per terabyte and includes 3tb egress

excluding upcloud and idrive because i've barely heard of them. backblaze has been around for like 20 years, akamai a bit longer, ibm a lot longer. ibm is excluded due to historic nazi collaboration. akamai vs backblaze - backblaze wins on price.

Domains that don't need programmatic access can be moved to Fastmail; unsure about others. Primarily wuf.one needs programmatic access for tailzone.
