Dont know, check OGF for their activity.
Virmach is active on les.
It depends.
I enjoy the VirMach party, but it's probably best not to get it if you don't need it...
No
Definitely not
but for a dev server, a non-critical personal service, it does the job ...
I took this one this morning on https://vps.blackfriday/

No
Better no. But i still have 7.48$/year jp location with 1gb,30gb storage, 1 vcpu 😂
I will keep my old deals(pro plus and a storage box) since they work, but not gonna grab a new one.
no, rather donate money to someone or charity or have nice food.
Not really, but the addiction is taking over.
There was some drama with Virmach and LET / Colocrossing, I think threads like these get removed or locked typically. Not sure what the full details are.
I don't think Virmach is quality from anything I've ever read about it but LEB features hosts that vanish overnight after some obviously unsustainable deal by a no-name company and has platformed actual scammers. Virmach is at least still in business after all these years and hurdles, so I guess that is worth something.
I don't trust them but I trust no one.
I don't think they're scammers though, YET.
But you can't expect good uptime.
So what you have to figure out is: "What is a price where I find this a good deal even with lots of issues and downtime?"
If it's below that price, go for it
But don't buy it if it's only a good deal if it turns out to be stable, because it very well might not be
Never used them and nothing against them but, from an outside observer perspective, I can't imagine there is any price where what they offer is worthwhile.
But it also depends on how much you're willing to spend, I mean, for some people it might be
But skipping sleep and F5'ing the BF thread constantly I guess you can find deals just as good from more reputable providers
They are not scammers. That is too harsh, and regarding trust, it's all relative. I would not get a service from them because of my prediction of maybe deadpooling. But then again, I have bought from providers that I thought would make it and almost didn't if it were not for a generous benefactor, and it is obvious I mean @jar
As I always say, I wouldn't touch them with a 10-foot pole.
I was wrong - the $5 BF deal was the breaking point
. I suppose I get to see what all the fuss is about.
Excatly
Even got to 4 I think with the code in one of the locations
these goons invoiced me for a product that hasnt worked in 2 years
where have you been in the BF thread
virmach is epic.
but canceled all vps i had with them.
Nah, not at all. It’s just scam with extra steps and should be avoided like the plague.
Please excuse my ignorance, but what is the difference between LET and LES ?
I’ve been meaning to ask the same question but now my guess is here is for deals under $10 and LES is for anything over
No
They continue to defy the odds. For so many years ppl here have been predicting they wud Deadpool but they just keep on going
No. They're simply different forums (even though many are present on both).
