Cirrus: ATProto Personal Data Server That Runs on Cloudflare Workers

1dom a day ago | parent | next [-]

This repo suggests running a PDS is a good thing because independence from platform changes, network resilience, data sovereignty and portability.

Doing that on cloudflare feels like a bit of a practical and ideological contradiction in places.

Regardless, still interesting/useful repo to learn a bit more about how PDS' work.

> The result is a PDS that runs at the edge with no servers to manage, automatic scaling, and pay-per-use pricing.

Since you have no control over traffic, that seems a bit worrisome compared to a flat rate for a VM?

		You don’t have any control over traffic on most websites either.
