#bunnycdn — Public Fediverse posts

Help me to check metalhead.club's current CDN performance!

Check out https://media.metalhead.club and let me know if the displayed location is the nearest for you.

There's Germany, USA and Singapore available.

I'm curious if Bunny DNS works more accurately than Scaleway DNS.

📈​​ #Wordpress x #BunnyCDN experiments part 3 (see previous toots) 🐇​

The site is still up - miraculously so.

I suppose all I had to do was turn on "Smart Cache" in my bunny.net account. Wow! 🎉​

#Wordpress x #BunnyCDN experiments part 2 (see previous toot)

#BunnyNet did a good job this time... the site stayed up, ouf. @Michaël (@mirou) reported trouble loading the site initially, but then it worked.

A visualization of requests (see photo attached).

Not sure how conclusive this first test is because the blog post's cover image didn't render on the fediverse... and I shared it from my GoToSocial account, which has 3k followers. I suppose the tide of requests wasn't super impactful.

The true test would be boosting that post from my Mastodon account... which has 13k followers 😟​

Let's do it

👩🏻‍💻 my so-called sudo life - day 497: Mastodon stampede edition 🐘​

Dear Fedi friends,

You may remember how last year I was dealing with self-DDoS attacks every time I shared a link to my Wordpress or Ghost sites. Well, I solved the issue with Ghost (#VinylCache is brilliant) but I never found a solution for my Wordpress site... not even with #BunnyCDN. I guess I wasn't tweaking the right settings.

This is a pity because TBH the ActivityPub for Wordpress plugin is SO COOL and works flawlessly. I had to move my blog posts to Ghost and keep Wordpress as a static portfolio site. That being said, I never dared share links to my Wordpress site anymore because I would get about 4000 requests within 60 seconds and everything would freeze.

I just looked into #BunnyCDN's settings again and tried to tweak them. So please bear with me for an experiment, sharing an old blog post and seeing what happens.

Wish me luck!

WOOT! #Bunnynet finally has #S3 early access! (I missed this notification was one month ago) Really looking forward to using it for my #Indiekit storage needs. Being a big fan of their CDN and #statichosting, I have high hopes.

@fd93 #bunnycdn is great people!

Thank you, kind stranger, who used my Bunny referral code! You helped me cover my hosting fees! 🥰

I still enjoy using Bunny.net a lot for my static website hosting and #CDN needs. If you have any questions about #Bunny Storage or #BunnyCDN, shoot me a message!

Here's my code if you decide to give it a try: https://bunny.net/?ref=k4vc3x5108

Oh, I am planning on setting up Bunny Stream for a friend who does video on WP so the videos are "native" to the blog instead of relying on YouTube/Vimeo... 🤞

@eclecticpassions @implementcontrols Is it true that #BunnyCDN will share customer account data with #Microsoft #PowerBI?

Kennt jemand eine gute Alternative zu #Cloudflare? Bitte nicht #Akamai, gerne europäisch. Mit #BunnyCDN beschäftige ich mich schon, aber vielleicht gibts ja noch weitere taugliche Anbieter.

New #blog post: Using #woodpecker #CI to publish Static Sites

I've moved some of my sites over to a gitops workflow: rather than manually copying drafts over for committing I now just commit and push them before leaving CI to do the rest

Post details what I did for both #Nikola and #Hugo sites as well as how I flush the #BunnyCDN cache

https://www.bentasker.co.uk/posts/blog/the-internet/publishing-my-sites-using-woodpecker-ci.html

Of course I am looking at European alternatives to #cloudflare to secure my #homelab but I might just stick with it and wait for the incident to be resolved. Maybe #BunnyCDN and #Tailscale funnels would do!

Does anybody have any experience with using Owncast with Bunny and Backblaze?

Is it a fools errand to try and get all three working together just to stream some games to a few friends?

I could use twitch, but I could also gargle toxic waste...

Matthew Prince, CEO da tecnológica Cloudflare, que tem escritório em Lisboa e é um dos oradores da Web Summit, descreveu o aeroporto como um “shitshow”. Não digo que não mas que dizer da Cloudflare e da Web Summit?

As some of you might know, I'm a big fan of Bunny.net.

I use them for my static site hosting and CDN. Just saw they launched a new project called hop-js for #FOSS / #OpenSource projects.

@jwolynko #BunnyCDN works great for me since a couple of months now. ⭐️ I use #codeberg to deploy to Bunny. No issues with that.

I have also written some littel guide on that here
https://www.codedge.de/posts/hugo-with-codeberg-bunnycdn/

Improved the security on my blog by adding some security headers via Bunny.net CDN > Edge Rules. My Cloudflare Radar report 🔐 has improved :)

Have to say #BunnyCDN is way easier to navigate than #Cloudflare CDN for someone like me.

I am thoroughly impressed by Bunny.net so far having moved to them for about a month now for hosting and CDN.

New How-to Guide on #BurgeonLab

https://www.burgeonlab.com/blog/migrate-github-pages-to-sourcehut-bunny/

It's a thorough guide of switching from an automated CI static site deployment workflow using GitHub Pages & GitHub Actions 🔄 to SourceHut Git and Builds + hosting on Bunny.net Storage & Bunny CDN.

It took longer than expected for me (a day on and off) to get #sourcehut builds workflow to work with Bunny's SFTP limitations but I got it working! This is definitely going into a blog post! Really happy it worked out. Sourcehut Git repo + Builds + Bunny.net Storage + CDN replacing GitHub Git repo + Actions + Pages!

Finally decided to take my first actions on migrating away from GitHub.com (#GiveUpGitHub) by moving my burgeonlab.com static blog out of GitHub Pages to Bunny.net Storage + CDN.

Also, I've decided to go for @sourcehut as my Git repo host—but that warrants its own post.

Pupontech.com is how behind #bunnycdn moving from the #monopoly that is #Cloudflare

Hopefully it feels ok

My dear federated WordPress blog,

Sorry for all the tests I put you through in the last 48 hours.

First, I changed your Webfinger setup, which broke federation. Then I reverted back those changes… I posted a test message that immediately federated (yay) but when I replied to it from my Mastodon account, I set off the infamous Mastodon stampede: 5000+ requests in the span of seconds, which took you offline (ouch). I had to delete my reply on Mastodon, flush your cache, and you were back online (yay).

Ever since, I have been on a mission to safeguard you against the Mastodon Hug of Death – a very familiar phenomenon that I experienced with my self-hosted Ghost blog.

The solution I found for it (on Ghost) was installing Varnish Cache. And my oh my has it been effective! A real champion, even at times when my blog posts trended all day on Mastodon (like the one announcing the release of my Fediverse promo video).

But I’m digressing.

My dear WordPress blog, you need protection against sudden surges of traffic brought on by the Fediverse.

This morning, I tried it all:

1. My plan A was setting up Cloudflare for you. I am SO GLAD that didn’t work out, though, because in the past year I have developed a real distaste for all things Big Tech and I couldn’t really reconcile using Cloudflare as your Content Delivery Network. Why this didn’t work out? It’s a very convoluted explanation… it had to do with DNS records and the way it’s set up. Basically if I manually connected Cloudflare to some DNS records for elenarossini.com, this association would take over ALL DNS records from the POV of my hosting provider, including subdomains… even if I didn’t add them. And I have LOTS of subdomains linked to self-hosted instances for Fediverse software and did not want to do that. I’m probably explaining things badly, but suffice it to say, it wasn’t ideal to tinker with DNS for a variety of reasons. Moving on.
2. My plan B was exploring how to set up Varnish cache for this website by using shell access. That, unfortunately, is impossible: Varnish needs Nginx or Apache and on a shared hosting plan you simply cannot tinker with that stuff. What to do?
3. My plan C was setting up BunnyCDN for this site. I first heard about it via the superb website European Alternatives (basically, a database of alternatives to Big Tech platforms and services from the US). Bunny is based in Slovenia and I heard praises of it. Now, I had tried to use it for Ghost earlier this spring, but never managed to complete its setup, and opted for Varnish instead. I decided to give it another go. Guess what? Bunny didn’t ask me for DNS records – its setup was easy and instantaneous, with its native WordPress plugin. I connected it to my Bunny account and was good to go – no tinkering with DNS.

I have double-checked in Developer mode that this site’s images are already going through Bunny. All good!

Disclaimer: unlike Cloudflare, Bunny doesn’t offer a free plan, so I will need to monitor costs. But I’m curious to see how it will do and how much it will cost on a monthly basis. Of course, I will report back about this (at the moment I have $50 in free credits).

Now the real test will be hitting “publish” on this blog post… and replying to the federated post with my Mastodon account. This simple action took my site offline yesterday.

If the site doesn’t go offline, I would up the ante and actually share the link to this blog post from my Mastodon account (to an audience of 8000+ people on hundreds of different servers).

Wish me luck!!!

Elena

Update: how did the test go? Well, the post federated and appeared immediately on my Mastodon feed. I replied to it and within seconds the site went offline, showing an “error establishing a database connection.” I refreshed the page and saw the homepage – fully functional, but extremely slow. If I tried to click on any items in the navigation menu, nothing happened. I deleted the Mastodon reply, flushed the cache… and the site remained largely unresponsive. Needless to say, I need to conduct more tests with Bunny. I am not giving up quite yet…
