I hadn't expected the topic about tutorials to be quite so controversial. Thanks for everyone's feedback. I'll pass it on to our community manager. --Katie
It's LET, we can and will turn everything into a controversy. If we fail to turn a subject into a controversy, then that failure will cause controversy.
Probably because you're venturing off yourself... his analogy was right. It's ironic you're saying this.
I see tutorials "How to install blah", not how to maintain blah. It's like you don't know why Google is popular and only meet people who always click on the second page of Google results.
The other day I managed to migrate entirely away from hetzner!
Service was ok. Although customer service was poor Dedi server was hard shutdown without warning to have a ssd installed, could be hard to find the correct ticket system for billing, Dedi ddr3 ram upgrades were crazy expensive and US peering wasn't great.
Cloud VPS were ok though although I could never workout what the extra 1-3€ charges were for on them.
@JoeF Thanks for the feedback. We appreciate it
Hey guys, I just wanted to give you a quick update about our team. We've got a new social media coordinator here at Hetzner in Gunzenhausen, so you'll be seeing her comment more and more frequently here. I'll still pop by every now and then to say "boo" and to keep up-to-date with any drama that's unfolding in the web hosting world. Please give Helena a warm welcome.
Nice! Does this mean that you (Katie) are stepping down?
Gradually, over time, yeah, I'll be doing less and less social media in the coming months. I wear a couple of hats here at Hetzner. I also do translations from German to English, and teach English classes. Even after Helena is more familiar with everything at Hetzner and LET, I'll still come by.
I know a lot of you all have a dark side. Now you can let your dark side out. Hetzner Cloud just introduced a dark mode for its user interface Cloud Console.
See a preview here. --Katie
Edited: Looks impressive to me. But still it's only a cosmetic. Can we have a Hetzner DC in USA instead?
Looks so much better!
That certainly would take a lot more effort. Trust me, as someone from the states, I would be really pumped if we open a DC there.
--Katie
Ou, so you are native USA? Noice. How old are you?
Is this what you people do when tinder is down?
Lolz could of bet money that was the next question. Either way, hetzner4life
Since sex and location are already known, the next logical question was indeed age.
a/s/l?
I'm old enough to have to explain cultural references to my colleagues, and I get slightly offended when I hear music I grew up with on the "oldies" radio station.
Maybe you all should suggest to @jbiloh that he add a dating service. --Katie
you amatures, shes has an interesting last name
Waiting for doxing services on let for 7$.
@Hetzner_OL I have searched everywhere but I can not find a test IP or Looking Glass to ping from. So, please tell me if you have for the Falkenstein Datacentre. And what is the Network speed for each Cloud Instance?
Right now we currently just have this: https://speed.hetzner.de/.
We also have these to check latency:
Nuremberg: ping nbg.icmp.hetzner.com
Falkenstein: ping fsn.icmp.hetzner.com
Helsinki: ping hel.icmp.hetzner.com
Our team is working on improving our speed test. (But I don't know when that project will be finished.) The speeds for the Hetzner Cloud servers can vary because of different factors. I suggest just creating a server in the location you want and checking for yourself. You can always just quickly delete it if you're not happy. --Katie
Yes, 'tis I. See, there's really not much mysterious about me after all...
I'm sure there are other readers on LET who are much more compelling subjects.
To change the subject, you all might want to check our social media channels on Sunday. It's not a big announcement or anything, just something small that might be nice for fans. --Katie
There's some great news today for people who like our Hetzner Cloud products. Some people might even call it epic news. I mean EPYC.
--Katie
Shit this is so goooood thank you hetzner
Finally!
EPYC is gaining more and more momentum. :-)
Great, now I have more granular option... very tempting CPU and storage combination.
this is bench.sh I run on new CPX11:
I/O speed much better than regular CX11 (skylake)
@Hetzner_OL it's very curious that today as the new AMD EPYC 2nd gen cloud plans become available, my "old" CX21 VPS becomes super slow.
I get timeout errors on Wordpress when trying to write articles and even comments don't work right. This never happen before. Is this a way to try to convince us to upgrade?
Congrats on your first post
But I'm sure that they would have waited at least a week before slowing down your VPS!
I should have complained earlier. It's now working great again
Super happy with Hetzner so far and probably will upgrade to the AMD EPYC 2nd gen cloud plans later on. My previous VPS was on @time4vps and it was super slow all the time (30 MB/s writing speeds...).
Hi @mca5701
Can you run the nench.sh benchmark script? To compare CPUs the bzip2-compressing time of a 500 MB file is a good test.
Thanks!
