Wait, so AnthonySmith is back in the hosting biz? :open_mouth: Somehow I missed this, but welcome back anyway! Glws :D I love the super cheap NAT vps approach with hourly billing :) Have you thought about a (bigger) investment in a lifetime ZAP Hos…

Fun fact, that's literally a way, how I discovered a then not-yet client's website after their hoster lost backups and data. Client was very happy and became one of most loyal customers.

A friend of mine is really happy with Nextcloud hosted by Hetzner :D

(Quote) Lifetime products are an investment in the company's lifetime, basically. Don't invest money you can't afford to loose. Same applies for investments like stocks/ETF etc. This isn't meant to sound harsh, just be aware wha…

(Quote) Seems like they underestimated it :D

(Quote) So, obligatory YABS post incoming? :tongue:

(Quote) Thanks for sharing :D Which specs did you get and Ryzen or Xeon? :tongue:
-
(Quote) Iirc some posts above it has been commented that when upgrading specs, you still have the original voucher applied. So, it should work :) Pop a ticket to be safe though. Location switch probably then is possible, too.
-
(Quote) Could be. You'd have to try the coupon. It might still work. The discord news did not include a date where the promotion would end. So might as well try your luck :smiley: (Quote) Iirc during bf there were biggest promotions for lifeti…

(Quote) Happy 2026 to you as well mate :) I think it's just more expensive, because they probably don't have an own DC/own staff in the US. In Germany, they have in-house staff managing their hw, which is probably cheaper. Plus there'…

Seems like many of us bought a vps again :tongue: That said, 50% off was too good to miss
-
(Quote) Good to know! I read that somewhere before. Good to hear that it works that way. 50% off on upgrades is nice :) What are you running on your zap vps?
-
(Quote) Didn't have the chance yet. To be fair, the vps are mostly idling and running Wireguard. I probably wouldn't notice much of a performance difference. Could probably compare yabs, but in the end it comes down to whether it performs …

(Quote) My vps was also on Xeon cpu but I also asked them and it seems like it'll be moved to Epyc now :) Great! A while ago they couldn't accommodate my request (during bf sale), so quite happy to have my first lifetime vps on EPYC :D Ed…

Ordered, but not yet deployed. Seems like it's on-hold. Maybe the coupon has been overused? Edit: got deployed
-
Ah, dammit. This is better than bf. Bought one at 50% off in Germany :tongue:
-
(Quote) Yeah, seems that way. Anyway, I'm probably not going to order anything anyway. The price is tempting, but I've already 2 (mostly) idling vps with them :tongue:
-
(Quote) You can also later switch location iirc (for a price). Nvm, after redeeming the coupon, I could also select Germany location right away (32€).
-
(Quote) Ah, fair enough. Not using pCloud Crypt but pCloud with Cryptomator, so can't comment on that. Wasn't willing to pay for pCloud Crypt anyway :tongue:
-
(Quote) Iirc it only works for the web browser. You need to bring your own encryption aka cryptomator for desktop
-
(Quote) Thanks for the tag, haven't tried them yet though :) That said, for lifetime vps, I'd probably still prefer ZAP even with the login requirement. They'll send an email reminder if you forget anyway. However, I'd also choos…

(Quote) This was the deal I got in 2019: (Image) Can't complain, really :tongue:
-
(Quote) Yeah, I agree. Also kinda sad you can't stack lifetime storage with Koofr. I've got 2,5TB pCloud, 2TB Internxt and 1TB Koofr lifetime. Got enough for now, luckily :D
-
(Quote) Same, kinda. I am using 800GB of TB I have with them. Mostly backups. My phone's photo's get automatically uploaded to pCloud and Koofr.

(Quote) I'll need to check if rclone works wi> @bikegremlin said: (Quote) Similar to why I'm not using Internxt. They have some sort of proprietary rclone implementation. Waiting until I don't need to use their cli for it.
