In McDonald's, labor costs differ, real state costs differ and feedstock costs differ. This doesn't translate well to the hosting industry. More like the opposite, actually: customers from some of the poorer regions end up being way costlier for th…

In my mind they are only good for cheap bandwidth. Wouldn't pay 6€/month (with VAT) for the smallest VPS when I can get similar specs with a more reliable provider.
-
Any reliable provider maintains 99.99%+ of uptime when calculated yearly, except in very catastrophic situations such as natural hazards, political instability or similar force majeure situations.

Different countries have vastly different hardware markets, so it is useful if whoever is interested states their country.

Come on... @serverian just added a 2GB container to my VPSDime account, with no expiry date! Now, THAT is an unbeatable deal.

(Quote) While I appreciate your offer, it is not really needed. Fortunately paying for test servers from time to time is not a significant cost for me. But thanks a lot for the very kind offer :)

Every time I visit LES I see this damn topic. I don't need servers in the US and dislike OVZ, but still the urge to buy remains. Is this maybe the best deal of the year? I'd say so.
-
I have absolutely no use for this but still need to resist the urge to buy. (Quote) It was on sale previously, before it expired. If you are the current owner and bothered about it, you can delist it.

(Quote) Mint is 100% untested and I don't plan on supporting it, given that it isn't a server distribution. One could edit the version check to force $os to "debian", but no guarantees.

(Quote) I don't have experience with it but the first issue would probably be to carry WireGuard over TCP to begin with. WireGuard (like OpenVPN) isn't really designed for evading active censorship.

I've only used TunSafe in Windows and it was buggy, I never said obsolete but it is abandoned, which means that it will become obsolete if nothing changes. If I were to use obfuscation for WireGuard I'd use one of the dedicated traffic obfuscation…

TunSafe is most likely abandoned, I'd suggest against setting up anything new based on that.

(Quote) This is a problem with many others too (Postmark comes to mind).

(Quote) This is also the case with SendGrid.

(Quote) Germany is the worst EU country to host user-generated content. German law enforcement will easily raid servers from a legitimate company if their customers did something illegal. Also free speech has significant restrictions in Germany comp…

Interesting insights. In consulting I have been doing pretty good (better than pre-corona) but some friends in other advertisment-related fields of the IT industry... not so well. Mid-term everyone is going to be impacted, that's for sure. Here in…

(Quote) Woah, sorry about that. It was my understanding that the hosting industry is generally doing pretty well other than equipment shortages and stuff like that.

(Quote) Not in this industry.

Due to a bug in BoringTun, adding users after the first one would result in WireGuard breaking for those using the script in OpenVZ. I have addressed that on my side with the latest commit. Affected users can download and use the latest version, no…

@curmudgeon * WireGuard does not support round robin connections, or rotating if one is down. You'd need to script that, or use OpenVPN. * WireGuard has the same permeability which OpenVPN has, if your network allows arbitrary traffic over an UDP p…
