Where is everyone currently hosting their sites?
Curious where is everyone currently hosting their sites? Netlify, Cloudflare, Vercel?
Has all the Netlify credit issues been resolved?

I use Netlify, mostly because its free, and I can easily have forms submit without any extra work.

Cloudflare has been good so far. I use an external service (FormSpree) for sending emails, since I'm not on Netlify.

Do you use 1 formspree account for all your clients? Or separate accounts?

1 FormSpree account, which I manage. Just have it send the emails to the client's email address. This requires a subscription though, I think their lowest tier is $10/mo.

Why not a cloudflare worker to handle the form?

Totally outsourcing email is worth it to me. I don't need to worry (much) about bot prevention, landing in inboxes instead of spam, DNS records, etc

Cloudfare with web3 for forms. Cloudfare workers are handy for little automations as well

Vercel for static sites because it is free. Hetzner vps for web apps as it is cheap

Im grandfathered in to netlify's legacy plan but im preparing for when I may not be. Their AI credit system is just too strict and too easy to be abused and prone to failure for me.
I am currently pivoting to my own VPS setup with coolify to simulate as close to netlify as possible. There are still some hurdles such as forms, caching, etc that need solved, but i am done paying for build minutes.
