either waymy suggestion was to find a deal that suits your needs at low end talk over trying to self host anything otherppl will be accessing from your home, you wont find good deals just googling around, or even on reddit
but thats the exact issue, the businesses with clean perfect sites tend to be the scams, while these where you need specific links off a forum like lownendtalm to even access the deal work well and are hella cheap in comparison? Racknerds also been great but way less resources, their deals also never go away if you get a link.
well, i have a lot of stuff running on it fine for the last 3 months, and lowendtalk is what I trust, I made a thread there asking about it and ppl trusted them.
You use a virtualizer panel and they provision from cogent, its pretty straightforward what you're getting and you can stress test it or whatever? Do you only trust the major players like digital ocean, aws, etc.?
But obv the smartest most helpful ppl on any given topic have old reddit accounts with a lot of karma so they can post? That prob killed amas too, celebs prob didnt have enough karma to make a post
I got a note on my phone saying delete reddit its not the same 4 months before my ban, but I def had no intention of actually leaving til I was banned, I always hoped it could change for the better and theyd reverse the negative shit not double down
I was already swapping preban but the ban forced me to swap, I dont lurk on reddit anymore or view posts like i did the first month or so (its uninstalled and only used on google rarely, since forums and even quoro are somehow better for useful info again), so I think I like lemmy more lol
The userbase is better, top comments opinion matches mine here, I go into a thread and I never feel the need to argue here, very different experience to modern reddit, close to reddit like 12 years ago.
to bad vrs got a hold and vrchats so much worse than the internet chatrooms we grew up with
Kind of, except the credibility is given by ppl attaching their name to it instead of ppl paying for it
no one does that mentioning tho, I dont want to flood communities with only my posts
Ill check them out, been curious about unlimited data transfer, does it allow torrenting done through their hosting
its just way less risky and not that expensive tho? I had the same idea as op til I realized that fit my needs and gave a lot more resources than hetzner.
I need to just stick off other social media, nice that this is the consensus here
its one of the more trusted ones on lowendtalk? nicer site doesnt equal better company and typically equals worse deals, a lot of the nicer looking sites on lowendtalk have had comment saying they are scams
Its so cheap to just get a vps from a littlecreekhosting deal, I checked them all on lowendtalk and its the cheapest for highest specs, you do have to comment your invoice to double ram, but its 4 core 8gb ram for 3.50 a month and 8core 16gb 7$ cogent amd epyc, and solid ssd space 140-160 idr exactly, they have multiple deals posted, the one with the prices I mention is the best one, they also had windows vps deals. Spent way too long testing hella, its not the best ping out there for me since I'm fairly far but I'm not hosting gameservers so its a non issue.
There are many other deals on lowendtalk but they are typically for way less resources or way more expensive for a lot more resources
But its actually usable, pixelfed sucks, prob way more actual engagement and conversation here, pixelfed is hella ppl posting with no likes or views
That was the goal of big corporations and more simplification over time and less customization, went from webdev not seeming viable since every mf could make their own website and would to everyone being incompetent to the point they cant use websites and can only use the few popular apps.
You could also host friendica or streams to access the same content if you know what communities you want to sub to, the apps suck tho compared to lemmy
Yes its not severely outdated, just a little bit, 3 weeks ago it was up to date
How should I be accessing the fediverse to get the most "federated" experience
Did not expect the reveal in the last Dexter Orginal Sin episode
