Traffic over-usage is $1 per TB, so this is still quite fair, only in singapore is traffic really expensive at $8/TB.

Expensive by Hetzner standards but still cheap by cloud standards, egress from Singapore EC2 instances is between $80 and $120 per TB for example.

$80!! EC2 is a scam

It's $120/TB for the first 10TB in a month, so you need to be spending >$1200 just on bandwidth every month before you even get the "discounted" rates.

I know serverless is really expensive, but Vercel is about $400 for 1TB

The real savings only come in bulk

That’s very fair. I wish they had put that in the email!

That is right, it would have maybe reduced the public outcry. It just makes it 10$ more expensive per month which is totally OK in my book

In Singapore and Asia in general traffic is very expensive, because there are no peering exchanges. So you need to pay for each Mbps you use. Big ISPs there are oligopolies and aren't too fast or keen to work with you.

so still order or orders of magnitude cheaper than the the big 3 hyperscalers.

  AWS EC2: 100GB included and then $90 per TB.
  GCP Premium Tier: $120 per TB
  GCP Standard Tier: $85 per TB
That's a bunch of money...

AWS drops to $50/TB - still 2x to 10x maybe? A lot of CDNs cost a surprising amount or hide pricing.
