I look forward to migrating to Linode's S3-compatible object storage. I appreciate that you are agreeing that it's shitty of AWS. But I disagree that it's "easy to solve". Like I said, I already spent quite some time looking into how to solve it. And having to set up logging for a bucket (and learning how to do this in AWS's complex interface), and if I understand correctly creating another bucket to receive those logs, and learning how to then obtain and interpret the results? Maybe you're above my paygrade but I do not consider this easy.


What drew you to using S3 in the first place while also discounting the risk that it might get a lot of use, and thus a lot of cost? Like, if a 100MB file in a public bucket got a bazillion downloads, did you not want that to happen?
