At work we use Vercel to get preview deployments on PRs for a few sites, but we find it very annoying that whenver someone PRs a site who is not in our team on Vercel, we have to pay Vercel another $20 a month or whatever to get preview deployments on that one PR.
It's hard to tell from other hosts' sites whether they would be less annoying about this. What hosts would give us convenient PR preview deployments but not charge by the user?

If you're using Fly, there's @sly timber's FlyCD project which automates preview deployments

oh very neat. we had switched one of our sites to fly when vercel didn't have streaming (for defer) but just switched back to vercel last week to get previews back 😓

Yeah I think it's free but I'd expect some premium features to appear at some point down the line
lunar grove
yeah, I was thinking that. can't tell what their pricing situation is
lunar grove
yeah, it's true. you could get it on fly with some github workflows
tulip drift
they don't charge per team member

cloudflare seems like the best alternative. most likely we'll stick with vercel. I have a minor dislike of vercel but it's not well grounded
tulip drift
and preview deployments are available on their free plan
lunar grove
and there's a lot that's nice about vercel

I'm just mad they kept messing up remix deploys for a while

yeah, Vercel is great, but their pricing is not

I'm still mad about this bug with file system access https://github.com/david-crespo/remix-vercel-filesystem
I know it's not reasonable
it was related to this feature of vercel/pkg https://github.com/vercel/pkg#detecting-assets-in-source-code

this ${__dirname}/../app/content fixing the fs usage on Vercel makes no sense

it was related to this feature of `vercel/pkg` <https://github.com/vercel/pkg#d...
I thought that Vercel was not using pkg anymore
