HostMantis server down notice
I got this email from Hostmantis, tho I have no service with them anymore, and I do not know which server that's down. i thought posting here might reach someone that is affected and use their alternative server to reduce downtime

No unsubscribe link. You get a spam filter rule!
Is there anyone who has hostmantis service here ? Since they are not lowend provider anymore.
Hopefully not since their attitude on here was complete BS
They took the cPanel price hike and upped it like x30 leveraged options investing
And fully blamed cPanel for it all, saying they wouldn’t have to adjust their pricing to nothing like the cPanel adjustment had not cPanel adjusted theirs
I spend what to me is a lot of money (not to everyone of course) on hosting. HostMantis isn’t too expensive for me to use in my stack. But I won’t, and no one should
Had they simply said that they’re changing markets and lowend is not sustainable for them, I wouldn’t have said any of this and I would have made a rational decision on keeping my hosting with them or not
But the way they’re so amatuerly ran, I think most of their ”hosting-aware” clients quit
The only reason I could ever see anyone from here using them is if you’re too busy or lazy to have migrated yet
