Could you share some services with the most generous free plans across various categories like cloud storage, hosting platforms, database services,...
For further actions, you may consider blocking this person and/or reporting abuse
Github Pages and Netlify for hosting static pages.
AWS Lambda or Azure Functions are quite generous for serverless APIs. They allow for at least a million requests a month for free under their "always free" tier.
Yup, thought of adding Lambda and Azure functions too 😄
Yeah, Azure Functions has helped me immensely when building static and JAMstack sites. There's no way I was going to hit a million requests in a month since they're only needed a few times a month for generating the static websites.
Thanks for the thread, btw. It's really a goldmine!
Aren't cloudflare bundled workers cheaper?
Pusher Channels for building anything real-time (like a chat, real-time graph, notification system) allows up to 100 concurrent users and 200,000 (!) messages a day
Cloudflare. Free DNS and unlimited(within reason) asset caching.
Localazy, with 1000 source phrases and all localization features for free, is pretty decent and enough for localizing typical apps for free.
Also, by sharing translations with other apps, it can actually save a lot of money on professional translations.
This is a nice recommendation, I would definitely try it. Currently, localise.biz/plans is on top of my free i18n tools' list with 2000 phrases in free tier.
With a deeper look at their pricing, Localazy is much much better.
Just compare free tiers:
Localazy: 1000 source phrases
Localise: 1000 translatable assets
(just a different name for the same thing)
Localazy: unlimited translations
Localise: 2000 translations
Localazy: unlimited languages
Localise: 10 langauges
Localazy: unlimited private/public projects
Localise: 2 private projects (please note that all projects are private; so this limit is effectively "2 projects only")
Localazy: unlimited revisions
Localise: previous version only
Localazy: unlimited translators, reviewers and additional owners
Localise: unlimited translators only
Increasing number of source phrases / translatable assets:
If your app has 1000 phrases in the source language (which is enough for 95% of all existing apps):
You can translate it fully into 50, 100, 150 languages for free with Localazy
You can translate it fully to only 1 additional language with free Localise and you would need to pay their Agency plan to be able to translate it fully to 50, 100 languages and there is even no plan that would cover you for 150 languages...
Also, there is not mentioned anything about machine translations in Localise plans. Localazy has them available for free including shared translations (more accurate translations by sharing between apps).
From this simple comparation, Localazy is strictly more generous ;-)
Yeah, you are right. Localazy IS more generous.
Similar to MongoDB Atlas, mLab provides a decent MongoDB cloud hosting free plan if you're looking for an alternative.
yup, and that 😉
I like Atlas, 512MB is more than enough to get started 😉
Firebase is actually great for free static site hosting.
3 free static sites at Digitalocean:

AWS has some nice free tier offerings. Also, I used Gravit Designer (Sketch alternative) free tier for a long time.
Tugboat has a free tier that provides hosting agnostic deploy previews and built-in visual regression testing…
Scaleway has 75 GB of free S3-compatible object storage.
Integromat is good free resource to automate workflows among online apps. I have used it for a while for my Blogging. It's not perfect but already saves a lot.
