It sounds like they made it free for customers for up to 500 domains. It also sounds like they were charging for DNS resolution before? Or is it DNS hosting?

>As with all bunny.net services, accounts using the platform are subject to our standard $1/month minimum spend, but DNS itself no longer incurs any usage-based charges.

Oh..kayy.

They were charging for nameserver hosting. The main draw are some advanced programmatic features for (geo) routing, scripting, etc.

The one dollar thing isn’t as bad in practice as it sounds since it covers everything. Basically invoice minimum across everything so if you’re using the platform in any meaningful way it’s a non issue

Their DNS is also scriptable, it’s not just a name server

You had some - millions (?) of - DNS queries free in the past.
