Small thing we’re weirdly proud of: imgproxy Pro is pre-paid. Paid $49 for the month? Your bill for that month is $49. Not “$49 plus whatever happened on Tuesday”. buff.ly/0bEopMh

Azure is the worst experience I've ever had. The person responsible for the UX is clearly a psycho. The police should investigate them; they will most probably find zip ties, duct tape, and a hockey mask in their car trunk.

The more AI is adopted, the less reliable the services become. I didn't see this many outages and hacks before the AI era. Is this a coincidence or a consequence?

AI has spawned a new contagion – "cybersecurity specialists." Folks just ask Claude to find vulnerabilities in OSS projects and spam with reports like "If a user doesn't use security measures, an attacker can use this." You know, if someone shoots themselves in the foot, they will get hurt.

We spent more than half a year refining every part of imgproxy. Although we covered everything with tests and checked it manually, we'd love our community to help us find things we might have missed. Join the early access program to forge imgproxy's future!

Better observability in imgproxy 🔭 We already play nicely with major monitoring and error trackers out of the box. The latest release makes signals richer and incidents faster to untangle.
