    so @host_c just over here loving the drama so much he sends an email to start the pre-drama days before the real drama.

    More drama per drama

    If such a thing as pre-drama exists, does it mean that something like pre-popcorn also exists?

    pre-popcorn popcorn

    Or maybe pre-pop popcorn? This would make sense because @host_c hinted the price increase for quite a while.

    You could pump @PulsedMedia (use rootless docker lol). There's also @ViveHosting 2c2g25GB+1TB (check les) £18/y.
    Arguably, none of them could replace host-c on HDD performance.
    @PulsedMedia is the best option if you're looking for high BW. @ViveHosting for stable ssh experience. There's also @DeluxHost and @DediRock, but they're backup aligned.

    But, @host_c does left a sizeable gap between usable only as backup node which occupied sub $1/TB and high performance storage (currently @host_c and @onidel has $4/TB offers)

    Perhaps I should revisit @NovaCloudHosting's offer

    Sorry to @host_c, it seems my prediction are rather inaccurate.
    Hopefully whatever solution below could alleviate the commodity SSD pricing

    Or.maybe it is a liberation from the sadness of idling, maybe it is a liberation from the shakles of price increase, maybe it is a door offering absolution towards other deals which might appear in future, maybe it is a closure for worries about hackers using AI that might steal your collection of Linux ISOs. Maybe it is not sad - in the end maybe it is all just a bubble we try to survive.

    The host-c fleet (I guess I'm not really using a whole ton of my storage anyway, lol. pbs is the biggest and its eating like 1.5TB/10TB atm on the big one...but it's nice to have options!):

    Got the email as well. It was a great 2-year run with my $7/yr "In Search for Cociu" - enjoyed every bit of it!
    I liked it so much that I even pre-charged 5 years of credit for the future renewal. Guess it's officially time to go In search for HOST-C...

    I was quoted a 180% and 212% price increase for my two services.

    Service has been stable, but these aren't remotely reasonable prices.
