R2 Free tier storage: 10 GB-months rather than 10 GB/month?

What changes are you suggesting?

The Forever free tier's R2 storage is listed as 10 GB/month. That sounds like being able to add another 10 GB every month (common e.g. in video hosting providers). Other pricing figures for R2 storage use GB-month as the unit: how much x how long, making it unclear which you mean for the free tier.

I suggest clarifying in the text or with a footnote, and changing the unit in the table to be GB or GB-month if the intention isn't to allow a growing amount of free storage.

Hey @stevekmcc , thanks for flagging this! I can confirm that what we actually mean by "10 GB / month" is actually: GB-month / month.

We're tracking this change here: #19678

The relevant PR has been merged, so I'll close this ticket for now!

(We've improved the clarity in the limits table, and have added another billing example).
