@MRLabradoodle I don't see why Linode can't just setup anti-DDOS filtering similar to how BuyVM have theirs? If they're so superior, why not make it bomb proof?

At Linodes scale then, they should easily be able to tell you more information.

A lot of this has to do with Linode's scale at 60k+ customers. They have cages at each DC having 5-15k linode VPS' (rough guess). If one linode is seeing a DDos they can't let it hinder neighbors and

I always thought of Linode as a high end premium provider that was "bomb proof" pretty much; after reading @Cheif's post I think I'll be staying away from them, then again, a DDOS ca

I don't know what your agenda is, vpsnodebox, with these repeated attempts to discredit and belittle Linode. A comment like, "I bet they are great on the small trivial stuff" is call

@mpkossen If you need to say something positive about linode please do it here:

This is bullsh*t. Resizing a Linode is nothing like instant. They have a node-per-plan policy, so resizing is moving.

I using linode few years back. I dont remember the year. and I'm really happy with their server. my server uptime and speed fast enough for me. we only host 1 website and 1 forum there. after 1-2 year

@vpsnodebox linode is not a LEB. I doubt a lot of people here actually even bothered to try their service (thank you buyvm).

Well, seeing how no one is posting a "praise" comment about Linode - I can pretty much see how the community feels about them.

get the same in return. Obviously not if it's Linode and your IP is under attack. I see a lot of people go after a corporation like "You're rich, give me what I want, you can spare it.&q

After @Chief posted the thread - "Why Linode Sucks" - A Personal Rant - there where a few folks who tried to defend Linode. Aside from the usual gripes that @Chief listed, along with

My 2c on Linode:

@jarland I have something nice to say: I have found other small providers like me here that I've purchased services from so that I could set up DNS servers in multiple locations. They are really good

@jarland I am for the small provider, I don't care about someone like Linode... They do zero for the community. I understand that they are a business, but I will not defend them. They never bend backw

I see @Cheif talking about poor customer service, and based on his account, I agree with him. Now should Linode null route or not is not the question in my mind, it is why they did not join in the di

@Alex_LiquidHost I guess it would be relative to their profit margin. At Linode prices, I actually would expect hardware to be decommissioned at a certain point that I would never, under any circumsta

So what everyone is bashing linode right now is only because they use "old" hardware? But if something is not broken, why fix it? Seriously. I have yet to see some one posting &q
