Render.com isn't that attractive anymore

I have been thinking these lasts months about moving to render. Mostly to keep my life simple. Then, I heard something about changing prices, and learning more, I found:

"Egress bandwidth usage beyond a plan’s free allowance (100GB) will be charged at $30 per additional block of 100 GB. This is necessary to cover our costs for global bandwidth and DDoS protection. Inbound bandwidth is still free."

How is this in any way a good deal?

I am in Hetzner right, where first 20.000 GB Are free and then €1.21 for every additional 1000 GB in traffic. I'm not talking about the CPU costs, or its management but how at this point I consider that irrelevant.

What do you think?
