I will put there the other obvious offender: Vercel . Not sure about bandwidth, but dark patterns, keeping serious RBAC procedures we'll hidden until asking a fortune even for startups, to provide not things like SSO, just reasonable RBAC.

With all that money they then can finance the free tier until they get too far and become platform locked-in.

Surge.sh Im not sure. But shows all the sign of some greedy acquisition, regular long outages , as if I have been sitting as a free tier for too long, quick nudge to pay. For barely accessed sites even behind CDNs, steep. I even worry they one day just wipe all my buckets (they did for a few already) and support would recommend me to be a "normal" paying user .

Nothing is free. And nothing too good to be true is true .
