I changed the forum’s CDN from Stackpath, which recently increased their monthly price from a flat 12$ to a flat 33$, to Bunny, which is pay-as-you-go.
It should be transparent and hopefully I configured things right. Please report any issue you could come across (broken internal links, images not displaying, resources not loading, etc).
The banner will be shown on the forum for a few days but is dismissible.
Wow, I can report the pictures load way faster for me since the change.
Unexpected improvements are the best kind!
I didn’t expect it would increase performances (I expected roughly the same), but if it did, good for us 
@hillin, which country do you live in?
I live in China. Actually I had to use VPN to view the pictures before (I can view the site without a VPN, but also without pictures). Now not only I have direct access to them, they are also blazingly fast!
The maps of Stackpath and Bunny PoPs’ (Points of Presence) locations from their website:
Stackpath:
Bunny:
But the number of PoP and their location probably aren’t the only factor to serve assets quickly. I don’t know anything about this kind of stuff. As long as it works well and it’s not unnecessarily expensive, that will do
That’s awesome and very good to know, thanks for the info! Glad it was a direct benefit to you
By pinging cdn.unicyclist.com I get a few different IPs from Russia. They are quite good in latency.
What kind of worker are you, if you don’t mind me asking? Speaking of “pinging” makes me think Information technology worker.
There seems to be a lot of science/technology/engineering/mathematics type Unicyclists for some reason.
On another subject…
BTW, thanks @Canapin for all you do running this forum 
I am overdue buying you more coffees 
Yeah I am a software engineer, aka programmer. I also find there are a suprisingly good amount of programmers among unicyclists, guess maybe it’s because they are both geeky in a common way.
Can confirm, am Canadian, was changed.
