    Must be the laser focus. It overpenetrates into unrelated matters like a 9mm. But I did my homework and carefully mentioned "VPS" to stay in topic. I'm afraid the attempted fraud was spotted.

    If anything with all this new technology you can really build out interesting things to set yourself apart and offer more expensive VMs, just look at AWS/GCP they are expensive yet also offer global load balancers, moderately good firewalls, upgradability, backups, block storage, and many other ancillary services for cloud native developers.

    Although I'm starting with VMs I have plenty of other projects in the works for what I can provide for both developers and people who need hosting for standard applications like cloudpanel. That's where we should be heading and legitimately competing with the big guys offering new and innovative infrastructure technology to people.

    Additionally if you do want to be pricing yourself higher you can become more mainstream with things like TikTok or YouTube such that your name carries weight, it seems like you are already pretty established but I think many of us smaller guys benefit from it. Personally I enjoy going for a target audience such as people who need simple discord bots, web hosting, or the likes because it helps prevent abuse.

    That being said even entering this market only in the last 2 years I think VMs alone with proper allocation limits are massively profitable at scale, perhaps when I have to hire staff to handle tickets I'll think otherwise.

    Its lifetime since goverment implement e-KTP (electronic ID Card) on 2012.

  • If Bing isn't lying to me, an Indonesian e-KTP is $3 and never expires. Literally the cost of one tomato at Target. How crazy.

    How is the cost of life and real estate?

    Then bing is lying, I do not pay a single cent for my e-KTP. I asked for re provision the card twice and never pay a single cent.

    The national average minimum monthly wage is less than $200, with the average population only managing to save 8% of the wage into bank accounts. The capital city simply doesn't have affordable housing, most just choose to commute and retire elsewhere, which in turn barely has any public transport yet most of the population can't afford a car, just a motorcycle for a single household. Outside the main island cost of living is higher due to the logistic expenses while the average wage is even lower since the low development level means simply less business.

    Most of the population doesn't have cable internet, relying on metered mobile connection at ~20 Mbps costing between $3 to $7 a month. Outside the cities, fridges and washing machines are still rare, which the market adapted to, i.e., fresh perishable dominate with people doing grocery runs daily complemented by some shelf-stable food, laundries only target those too busy to wash their own, etc.
