    I always thought @Francisco BuyVM to be the most reliable for the price and the general stance towards freedom of speech. Buy a Starbucks less, get BuyVM instead... IIRC, a node fails every now and again, but you should have backups regardless, and Stallion has snapshots... so you should be more than ok.

    But, personally, I'd go for BuyVM myself... to avoid headaches with stupid bot notices.

  • think hetzner is a better deal than buyvm? I already like racknerd and hetzner, was looking at these others because they have way more resources at the same price.

    Most overselling is reliable until the point at which the node starts to get filled. Unfortunately.

  • Unironically coloncrossing $10/y for IPv4 with 20TB bw

    Lack of ipv6 limits the usefulness for adding a below-cost IPv4 to a v6-only server, but it’s still great for adding a static v4 to a home cgnat connection

  • This is an excellent offer, (buying annually), and some of the nodes are now running Ryzen 9950X

  • Grabbed a 7$ 8 core 16gb 160 that should get the ram doubled from littlecreek and the new years 4core 6b ram 140gb ssd from racknerd for 60$ a year so far.

    I happened to hear that people on PAYG plan get priority in the queue for the free tier servers, and they are never charged (Personally I’m not on PAYG because I joined about 5 years ago when there were no issues getting servers).

    Can confirm. Free tier Oracle for years. 4 or 5 maybe. Not maxing out resources but so far so good. Uptime is great. Never had a single outage.

  • Loads of threads have been closed which I assume means the offer is no longer valid. Sad times :(

    Is it true that they suspend accounts if they're idling though?

    It happens but not in a very clear pattern. I know users with long idling VPSs who don't experience it for some reasons. It's recommended to log into the site maybe twice a month and occasionally run something on the VMs during inactivity periods, and still keep your fingers crossed :)

    Yes, so I have been told by others. I host a website on one instance and dns on the other. Nothing fancy .

    massivegrid is shit

    Bought a 2vcpu, 8gb ram, 126gb from MassiveGrid. I have buyers remorse. Installing Debian (net install) from their iso. It's approaching 14 hrs and I'm just getting to the grub install.

    Sent a ticket to support to troubleshoot performance. Got a reply 10 hrs later "The vps is running. Are you still have performance issues?"
