Thanks to the awesome atproto community advice, docs.surf lives to see another day! Was able to create a closed loop on Cloudflare and cut my usage to practically nothing. Should be stable for months to come!

Hate to say it, but I might need to stop my indexer for docs.surf. It’s. Fun little project, but the costs are slowly creeping upwards as standard.site continues to grow. Tap listening to every single record just eats up way too much egress.

tldr: instead of using tap on a separate platform, I used a cloudflare durable object + jetstream to bring it all under one roof. It does have its limitations though, and I do plan to unpack a lot of that in a blog post
