I have a few popular HN-launched static sites on Netlify including https://servicelist.io/. Not only do they provide a seamless hosting and CDN (cache-expiring) experience but they also have a wonderful multi-user CMS that eliminates about half of my Rails sites! I'll reiterate a few other sentiments in this thread, it feels a bit too good to be true. Even with 300k monthly traffic, not paying a dime seems like a precarious situation to be in for a free service.

Is 300k monthly traffic even a big deal when all you are doing is serving static files?

With images it can definitely add up. On S3 + Cloudfront, I was paying about $85/mo for coolbackgrounds.io
