interesting this KYC for something of 7 dollar per year. Buying a house is almost easier.
have at look at https://tierhive.com if you want, we are a small team, 2 old sys admins and a dev, not pretending to be enterprise, this is still in alpha, we dont collect personal info, free credit on sign up under most conditions, and we tried to do things differently, you get a /24 to play with on a custom meshed lan, you then build your servers on top, if you are looking for yabs porn, probably not for you, if you are looking to play with something a bit different that costs $0.000135 per hour on the minimums, cool!
You can even manage your own dhcp scope
The project is still in Alpha, we don't take ourselves too seriously, not 1 office was used in the development
noez ask after a phone number yet?
Never asked me for anything, i used their gre tunnel service.
You caught me at a good time, I was just scrolling through some of these providers to check some out since my billing cycle ends in 3 days. TierHive has peaked my interested for the next month! Registering now (:
I'll vouch for @aluy
any issues or if you dont get free credit (still work in progress, some false positives still) just let me know by PM or ticket I will sort it out for you.
Ant.
❤️ Thanks for the tag!!
@cainyxues Thanks for the love babes!! 🥰
@tracks mostly no bs and a little bit of inappropriate kisses 😘
Definitely try @MannDude incognet. I think it would be a great match for real.
@tracks I can vouch for Incognet and honestly haven’t had ticket issues. They have never gone unanswered for a duration longer than I am willing to wait. Yes it’s longer than some bigger providers, but my issues weren’t urgent. I have never had urgent problems with @MannDude that he didn’t address immediately.
@tentor and @aluy I have used them both and can recommend them.
Tried to load the website:
So you block Tor. Pass.
Yeah sorry bro. Too many kiddy porn orders from Tor exits unfortunately. You can use any public/commercial/private VPN. (no need to share your info either)
Would recommend. Prem provider.
Also I like the new website design.
100% agree. Aluy is great. I have three VPSes with them.
I also really like @MAXKO_Hosting who are very understanding of privacy. There's also Pfcloud UG (https://pfcloud.io) who aren't on LET but who are no-nonsense and don't care about KYC (unless you're trying to get VAT removed).
You don't need to block access to the front page to stop people from hosting CP. Better to just have the orders automatically marked as fraud and then you can manually review any that look legitimate.
But it's hard to be considered a no-BS hosting provider if you're one of the few on LET that completely block Tor even from the front page. It makes ExtraVM seem more hostile to privacy than even the average host. The USA for example has some of the strictest CP-related laws in the world, and yet providers like IncogNET who are based in the US manage to function just fine without blocking Tor. It's your choice, of course, but it would be better to find privacy-friendly alternatives.
It's not worth putting extra effort to allow people to browse the site, and instead only get blocked then they try to order. I'd rather just tap one button rather than continuously maintaining a list of Tor exits. There's really never been any good orders from Tor (separate from HTTPs attacks through it.)
It's not about blocking people who can't access the internet in the first place, or people who want anonymity - Tor is blocked by pretty much all global regimes that censor the internet of their citizens. I don't block VPNs, proxies, nor datacenter IPs. Any blocks of those that I did in the past were temporary due to attacks and were removed.
We can have our own opinions!
I believe he's actually not in the US but lives in Asia based on some of his past comments, but it's totally besides the point. Anyone can register a company in the United States, it cost like $50.
I'd argue I'm more privacy oriented than many others, I just don't care to boast about it.
"No-BS" means no bullshit. I never said that I run a "Tor friendly" company. But I'm also not against Tor, I've donated to them multiple times in the past and have Tor merch from like 10 years ago.
Fair enough. I just have a knee-jerk reaction to Tor blocks since it's (almost) always synonymous with a complete disregard for privacy and the importance of anonymity.
I'll remove the blocks and see how it goes, hopefully not to regret, but I'll keep a managed challenge from Cloudflare on some. Looking over it now though I actually didn't block all Tor, just a handful of networks where most problems stem from. Tor exits on common datacenter/VPS ranges weren't ever blocked.
What might work well is requiring a pre-sales ticket to order while using Tor. That would give you some valuable insight into the kind of person who is purchasing. It should be easy to distinguish bots and MJJs from people who simply value privacy.
Maybe can check out @servers_guru, seems to match what you are looking for.
Thanks for the mention! We definitely fit that description since 2021
What kind of hardware do you operate? I don't see it on your site. Cpu, ssd, etc.
Nothing that will win any YABS competitions, its all NVMe based as a minimum, but its not an enterprise grade project, so we just take what hardware we can get at a price that fits, anything from Intel D, to EPYC, Kansas runs on the best hardware with EPYC CPU's and DDR5, UK is probably the slower with a Xeon D-* base
If you're concerned about the hardware, it's probably not right for you, if you are just curious
Sign up, and you get free credit to test it anyway, all you need is an email address and a username, we dont collect personal info.
i think most web hosts just require an email address to sign up.
only when you make a payment some might as full address that too to match credit card. but if paid by paypal no need to put all the address.
We use an MOR model, technically you are never our customer, you pay the mearchant of record, we just geta signal confirming that and give you the account tokens.
We need an email address, because the internet is a fun place to not verify sign-ups and also so you can get alerts etc if you run out of credit. but thats it.
I guess technically we could even optionally purge your email address after sign up and you can use a username only. I will add that to the list/roadmap.
maybe you could add option to link social network contact (discord, telegram, whatsapp etc) & verify through that also & send msg to it as optional other than email.
Yeah we considered that, might go that way, probably not discord given that they are jumping into government pockets these days and Trust+Meta is not a good equation, but maybe telegram, signal, other stuff that's not just a data farm.
i like @tentor i think @tentor is good because @tentor server is very stable and @tentor server is very sweden and @tentor is @tentor
thanks
