Selfhosted
A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.
Rules:
-
Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.
-
No spam posting.
-
Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.
-
Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.
-
Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).
-
No trolling.

No, Contabo.
How long have you been using Contabo? Are they reliable enough?
They're good enough for hobby projects, but don't rely on them for very critical infrastructure, unless you can setup reliable high availability yourself. Multiple times they took down my DB for hours on the weekend and were unavailable to fix until Monday.
However they're one of the best power for money available. I've been using them for something like 10 years now, but I started using them way more extensively 1 year ago when I started the AI Horde
Different experiences I suppose. Used Contabo to host an ansible setup of Lemmy, never had a single outage for 6 months.
It's down to luck. I've had two different DB contabo server hit by outages. I once had about 8 VMs going down together. If you've managed to avoid it, great. But it's a matter of time.
