I’m trying to figure out how Cloudflare and Netlify compare if I want to use one for a website/blog, but I’m not completely sure about differences in costs and stuff, especially because so would use the free tiers.
In general, both seem alright. Netlify seems easier for the stuff I would deploy, just a couple clicks, but it also has the thing with the credits.
You get 300 credits and each deployment costs 15, and on top of that there’s the traffic and such, which is not much anyways.
But that would mean a bit under 20 deployments every month, which is most likely enough, but it still means that I would not be able to do daily posts on a blog, for example.

I’ll probably try with one and switch to the other if I don’t like it, it should be easy if I have the stuff on GitHub or similar…
