Max 3500 records.. 🤦‍♂️ ON CLOUDFLARE!

Even for Pro.
Even for BUSINESS!
EVEN FOR ENTERPRISE!

Even worse, there's not a single other DNS hosting provider that's easy and allow more than that shit.

Earlier this year i definitely remember it was 10k for the Free plan.

It's a cartel. The whole industry has insane pricing for some 1-3k records, if at all.

The only left is AWS Route 53 but.. don't want to deal with them either, maybe as a last resort.

That's just ridiculous.

So.. what #Bitcoin Lightning Nostr providers, like Nostrplebs, use? Even if it's CF, it's not scalable, and pretty soon would need to ask for higher and higher prices for your users.

In my case, i want to do similar thing but also give them off-chain ENS name to that domain (foo .wgw .lol), which also requires a TXT, so it's 2 records per registered user.

Nightmare.

What's so the problem having 10k or more DNS records?!
I don't get it. I like to plan, that's why i can't just start doing it and "scale as you grow" cuz 200 is just ridiculous and the whole thing can actually fail cuz i don't want to pay insane numbers.

Which makes me thing.. we gotta have Nostr usernames, Bitcoin/Lightning usernames based ONLY on `.well-known` folder and files.
