IP address changes seem to have finally killed my until-now-reliable VPS in NY. Honestly not sure if I can be bothered in trying to resolve it or just accept that it's time has come /sigh

Average lifespan of any "lifetime" reseller hosting I've had has been ~3 years :lol:

(Quote) Maybe he could cross-post it Substack

(Quote) Google Cloud. AWS. Azure. Everywhere you'd expect, really.

Ahh, didn't realise ko-fi handles recurring too - I should probably look at that again!
-
(Quote) Patreon has the advantage that you can set up a recurring sub, which I don't think kofi/buymyacoffee do.

(Quote) Yes, what a slow-ass WP site weighed down with plugins needs is more plugins :-)
-
(Quote) I'm not wild about ads (and I've no idea if you have enough non-signed-in traffic for it to be worth it), but I do get that bills need paying. I'd echo other suggestions that donations would be a nice option to have (although …

Honestly, if you're hitting CPU limits on the 'crane with "minimal traffic", then the only realistic thing you can do is sort out the mess that is your WordPress install; you're not going to find much at charity-friendly pri…

(Quote) From your own ticket: "We will proceed with full public documentation of this case. We will open detailed threads on ..." The fact that you haven't (yet) named them doesn't really tone down the obvious threat. Once you …

(Quote) I mean you've already gone full "I'm gonna give you a bad review everywhere" in those tickets, so you're probably at best on borrowed time. Whatever the whole story, you've burned that relationship and I'd…

No IPv6 on the budget range?

I think it's weird that they're totally uninterested in the actual community, and although their titles are now within sight of the offer, it's always the same offer of a seriously low-grade CPU with a ... creative description. But th…

(Quote) Fat does not make you fat, but chocolate makes you happy. Scientific fact.

Then again, at over $60 for a 1230v3, I can see why they don't run out of stock :-)

(Quote) Astro + Git (which I find a bit more flexible than Hugo, although it's JS, so ... urgh) Or if you prefer PHP, Cecil + Git; it's pretty slow for bigger sites, but if you're used to Twig it's pretty painless.

(Quote) The clients demanding an immediate response out of hours are almost never the ones willing to pay for it. I don't often fire clients, but for those I make an exception :-)
-
(Quote) Honestly, I've had clients like that before - in the long run, you're better off without them.

(Quote) Ok, the phrase "WNY IT Services, Inc. (LET owners) claimed that using the name "LowEnd" and domains like lowend.vip, low.ad or lowendspir.it was a trademark violation" suggested rather more than that. They do hold tradem…
-
I'd love to know where LET thinks they hold a trademark for "LowEnd", because I can't find one (and I'm 90% sure it's too generic to trademark anyway)
-
(Quote) I just don't get why you got an AI to write a post about two completely disconnected topics, but I look forward to your exciting bulletproof hosting offers when if you get a tag. I also look forward to the thread about your inevitable d…

You really need to stop letting ChatGPT write your posts for you.

Honestly, for my money you'd be better off without profile images but I'm not your PR department. I've never really seen the need for headshots on corporate websites, but slop that looks like you generated it on a Facebook app doesn&…
-
Much better! Now if you can just do something about those dreadful AI headshots that make you look like a made-up company... :-)
-
You'll find their company name buried in the Terms of Service, but inexplicably they still don't like to admit their company number. I continue to find their desperate desire for secrecy weird and offputting.

Hetzner storage box maybe; overkill in terms of space, but cheap and admin-free
-
Full logs is the gap I'm most conscious of, so very excited to see that landing. A slick enough webmail to ween the last of my users off gmail would be nice, but probably impossible.

Gemini when I want to be lied to constantly and then gaslit about it.

Only bother with translations if you actually have staff that can speak those languages; no point in having a multilingual website if your support melts down at the first Bonjour or God Morgen.
