Man, thanks so much for this. I’m using Wasabi with a Yarkon front end right now and it’s great, but Backblaze/Cloudflare is looking like a serious contender.

FYI, video files (and potentially anything not text/HTML) is prohibited through Cloudlare in their TOS (some services like r2 excluded)

They have updated their TOS a few days ago:

The prohibition on non-HTML content seems to only apply to CDN usage now.

AFAIK Serving content from Backblaze via CloudFlare is exactly CDN Usage

That is exactly the use case, which is hosting the files on b2 (not cdn capable) and caching+serving from cloudflare. Unless the files in question are webpages or static webpage content (doubtful) then it would definitely be exactly the target of these new TOS updates.
