Hey, thanks for reading and it's great to read your interesting discussions.

Couple of things.

The main reason to move my data to the EU is that I live in the EU and I don't want a few non-EU companies in an unstable political climate have control over it. It's too unpredictable and I rather support companies closer to my jurisdiction.

I know the EU isn't perfect. And my stack is not 100% EU at the moment. I'm a pragmatist and just got down and transitioned the bulk of my services. Always room for improvement.

Some good points: my domain is owned by the US. That's true, but no way around it I guess (I do own the .nl too though).

I should dive deeper into using something else than GitHub / GitLab. Indeed maybe Codeberg / Forgejo.

And Cloudflare proved not to be ideal today (thanks for the hug of death). I still think using Cloudflare is a problem data-wise, because it only handles public data, but I might look at BunnyCDN again to see if they have better limits.
