Arch with i3wm

Yeah I feel that a vast majority of them would just install the Official™ Reddit app and live with the crap. We’ll see though.

Yeah I use adblock.

Depending on what kind of content they serve, they usually still make a lot of money.

They do a $100 test charge IIRC when upgrading to their PAYG (pay-as-you-go) tier. They also don’t like virtual/prepaid CCs.

Mine is about a year old as well. I’m also curious to know what triggers these bans. I also noticed people bringing up Minecraft servers on r/oraclecloud. I personally have a Valheim server running for months but I haven’t had any issues.

I switched over to Netim after Gandi announced their new prices and removed the free mailboxes. They’re a bit pricey (close to current Gandi pricing) but it comes with a mailbox (1GB) and a 250MB website.

Satoshi Kon. It’s unfortunate his filmography is short but he’s made some of the best Japanese animated films.

Debian + nginx + docker (compose).

That’s usually enough for me. I have all my docker compose files in their respective containers in the home directory like ~/red-discordbot/docker-compose.yml.

The only headache I’ve dealt with are permissions because I have to run docker as root and it makes a lot of messy permissions in the home directories. I’ve been trying rootless docker earlier and it’s been great so far.

edit: I also use rclone for backups.

Just wanted to add that you also get two free AMD64 servers (1C/1GB). Been using mine for a year now but I do agree - don’t use it for anything personal or critical. Make backups!

Are they really charging a 50% price increase on top of the discontinuation of the free mailbox? Looking at the sheet, they’re charging 35 EUR for my domain that normally costs me 20 EUR and only 13 USD on sites like Cloudflare… Am I not reading it right?

These are the only two free ones that I can recommend as someone who has been doing (mostly amateur) editing for years.

Oracle has a tendency to pull the rug and take your VPS away. You can read about it on the forums or on r/oraclecloud. I still have mine but I’ve heard of so many stories about how Oracle will flat out just terminate your instance without warning.

If you want to push through with it, make sure to do regular backups (as everyone should do).

Mass Effect series. Especially ME3 with the DLC’s. I think it was the Citadel DLC that I enjoyed the most. The game was really emotional at times.

• Synapse (Matrix)

• Private git repo
• My website (static files + nginx)

I used to self-host Jellyfin but gave up because most of my files are H265 so other devices (like smartphones and televisions) struggle without transcoding.

I also host game servers for my friends when we’re in the mood to play games like ARK, Valheim, or Minecraft.

It’s June 12 here (Asia region) and interestingly, the only subs appearing on my feed are some of my favorite “deranged users” subs.

I’ve been watching videogamedunkey since I was a highschool freshman. I love his humour, style, and his insights in games and other media.
