After building my first Serverless/Cloudflare worker app, this is why I migrated to Deno. Deno enables you to run the same codebase in deno (self-hosted/local) and in deno deploy (serverless platform from deno).

I wanted my app to be self-hostable as well, and Cloudflare worker is a hard ecosystem lock to their platform, which makes it undesirable (imo).

Here is a link to my reasoning from back then: https://github.com/K0IN/Notify/pull/77#issuecomment-16776070...

I ported my worker project into Django since cloudflare workers wouldn’t allow selection of region for hosting workers which is generally required due to data compliances. This is something all cloud providers provide from day one yet cloudflare made it an enterprise feature.

Also the vendor lock-in doesn’t help with durable objects and D2 instead of simply doing what supabase and others are doing by providing Postgres or standard SQLite as a service.
