MoreAI Scams Are Now Kenya's Biggest Digital Payment Threat, Visa Report Warns

Google Just Quietly Downgraded Your Gemini AI Pro Plan, and Users Are Furious
If you woke up to an email from Google yesterday with the subject line "Updates to your Google AI Pro plan," you were not alone. Subscribers across the world received the same message, and the reaction on social media has been, to put it mildly, not great. Google has overhauled how usage limits work on its AI Pro subscription, and what looked like a routine update is turning out to be a significant downgrade for many users.
Google Broke the Web It Built. Now It's Selling You the Pieces.
Google introduced AI Overviews in May 2024, rolling them out to all U.S. users before expanding to over 200 countries and 40 languages by May 2025. The idea was simple: instead of just showing you links, Google would now summarise the answer for you right there on the search page. Google's pitch to publishers was equally simple: we still cite your site. We link back to you. Think of it as free advertising.
Cloudflare
MoreCloudflare Is Building a Transactional Email Service — And It Could Replace Brevo, Mailgun, and Postmark
If you have ever set up transactional email for a web application, you know the ritual. Pick a provider — Mailgun, Postmark, SendGrid, Brevo. Create an account. Verify your domain by adding SPF, DKIM, and DMARC records one by one. Wait for DNS propagation. Submit your sending domain for review. Wait again. Hope your first emails do not land in spam while your sender reputation is building. Pay a monthly fee that scales uncomfortably with your user base.
Cloudflare Just Built a Next.js Replacement in One Week With AI — And It Could Free Thousands of Developers From Vercel's Bills
For small projects and side hustles, Vercel's free tier is generous enough. But the moment your application gets real traffic, needs proper team collaboration, or requires advanced features like ISR caching and edge functions at scale, the bills climb fast. Vercel's Pro plan starts at $20 per month per team member. Enterprise pricing is custom, meaning expensive. And because Next.js was built by Vercel, deploying it anywhere else has always involved a painful compatibility dance with tools like OpenNext that require constant maintenance as Next.js versions change.
Cloudflare Just Made R2 Significantly Faster for African Developers — Here Is What Changed and Why It Matters
If you are a Kenyan or African developer building on Cloudflare R2, there is a feature that quietly launched in open beta earlier this month that you should enable on your buckets right now. It is called Local Uploads, it costs nothing extra, and depending on where your users are relative to your bucket, it could cut your upload latency by up to 75%.
