    I think in total probably around 90 VPS, and ~8 dedis plus a few racks of colo. All personal stuff, mostly used for scraping and preserving the internet.

    That is really impressive! Actually I see huge numbers here from many people.

    I am just wondering why @paijrut and @eris have reseller hosting. May I ask why not to do it yourself on a VPS? is cPanel maybe the main reason?

    cPanel is probably the main reason. The licensing costs for the major control panels like DirectAdmin, cPanel, Plesk, etc are a lot more expensive than a cheap shared hosting plan (10x+ more). Also, these providers tend to include things like Softaculous, Litespeed, Cloudlinux, and a lot of other benefits.

    I refuse to pay for Cpanel license and needed to create a few backups for some tests to implement new feature on a project I work on. Also needed to test if I could create / delete Cpanel accounts over api. And this is cheaper and less hassle to setup a VM create a temp license and destroy it...

    I don't use/need it only for some tests... It was also my most recent "purchase" It is better then depend others and begging for tests and so on..

  • cPanel is probably the main reason.

    The only reason to lazy to get a temp license for a few tests and it was only 20 dollar / year. For some tests more then enough

  • A lot of VPSs! So I'm considering starting a new business :smiley: Aside from that, I am also playing for Google One, so we might count this also.

    Thank you, folks, for sharing. I am not the only one accumulating VPS servers.

  • For personal use I have around 40 vps's, a few shared hosting and 2 reseller accounts. It's from Racknerd, Hosthatch, Servarica, Nexusbytes, Terrahost, Scaleway, Inception just to mention a few. Also around 15 domains to play with.
    These are the ones I'm paying for, I also have access to a lot of customers dc's and could probably spin up hundreds of vps's if needed, but I've never been able to make myself use customers resources for personal use.

  • I am proud to say that I only have a single VPS now with Contabo just to run Mastodon and my blog. I used to have around 10 between virtual servers and dedis a few months ago, and I was self hosting a ton of stuff. Nothing was idle really. I am now recovering :D

    @noisycode said:
    Oh boy, I've got 31 VMs, ALL BEING IDLE. I have to get rid of some.

    What the hell 😂

  • Any projects to mention that you guys are hosting on your VPS? It is very difficult to launch a project and promote it, but I decided to separate all my stuff just in case; this is why I have some VPSs.

    Also, I have my own VDI, which is powered by a Contao server. I am always connected to it from anywhere when I need to browse my website, use my passwords, etc.

    Probably close to 2k/month, I make very good money and this is basically my only hobby so I'm OK with spending a decent amount on it. I'm scaling down my VPS though, ended up sticking with only 2 providers.

  • This should probably be a LET profile setting.

    I make good money in general so I don't mind losing money on hobbies, like I said earlier I'd feel bad if I made money off of any of my hobby projects

  • Come on man this is like asking a person to show you their crack stash.
