I moved my side project through all three of these in the span of half a year (yeah, I know). Wanted to share the real differences since most "comparison" articles online are just rewritten docs.
Cloudflare Pages — Cheapest by far, generous free tier, but their build times were inconsistent early on. Great if you're already using Cloudflare for DNS/CDN.
Vercel — Best DX hands down. Preview deployments are seamless. But costs scale fast once you're past the hobby tier — my bill jumped 4x when traffic picked up.
Netlify — Middle ground. Good forms/functions integration, but I hit weird caching bugs with dynamic content that took forever to debug.
Ended up back on Cloudflare for cost reasons. Curious if anyone's had a different experience, especially with edge functions.
