I'm one of those that dropped and moved to Firebase. The monthly payments were topping somewhere at $130 for a static website with 700-800 daily visitors and Netlify was starting to corner me into paying extra for every little detail possible. I clearly felt that onboarding was off and it's time to milk every cent.

Funnily enough, they slashed their prices 3 days ago. https://www.netlify.com/blog/2020/07/21/netlify-expands-pric...
