(Quote) You sign up, and then they be like: :) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oQW2FFt3-A8

(Quote) As far as I'm concerned - any hosting company could deadpool - nothing is guaranteed. Backups, always, prepared to move... I do currently host with them. Have more than a year of subscription left (until spring 2022). So, during 2021, I'll s…

(Quote) Haven't you noticed these things (disk size, account number, and prices) change on the go? Check again in a month or two, to see what the situation is like. :)
-
(Quote) I think that's beautiful. :)
-
(Quote) It's Serbia - we got them smugglers! :) Mostly from German companies, they seem to replace hardware after only 3 years. Or people have become surprisingly good at stealing from banks. :) "Come to Serbia - your bicycles are already her…

For me, the best laptops for the money are used (2nd hand) company laptops, the business models (Dell, HP preferably). Paid some 350 euros for an i5, 8 GB RAM, discrete graphics card, 500 GB SSD - and the battery still in a surprisingly good conditi…

(Quote) Hardware solution - duct tape over the screen areas where ads are usually shown.

(Quote) I had to plug in the coffee machine somewhere... It'll be back on line soon. ... one sugar spoon, or two?
-
(Quote) On a more positive side - imagine you never had any millions to loose. :)

(Quote) It returns 404, instead of "true / 1". :)
-
It will soon be back to normal - they are just migrating from HostMantis before January... :)
-
Marry.

(Quote) As far as Yoast is concerned - it all works wonderfully. Yes. I had left a test site with their patches - and it kept making huge database. Then removed Yoast completely from all the websites after a few months. Tested on a site with Generat…

Test all the used themes and plugins on a staging website before updating. Fortunately (knock on wood), of the one's I've been choosing, never have I had a problem with an update - for over 5 years now. But I hear lots of horror stories with every W…

(Quote) One doesn't exclude the other. :) https://www.cloudlinux.com/hardenedphp

(Quote) Some (shared) hosting provider's can't understand this. Thanks to CL, PHP 5.x can still be run, relatively securely - for those who don't like changing stuff that works, making updates for updates sake. Stuff over 6 months will soon be consi…
-
(Quote) What to watch out for? Considering the craziest stuff that can pop to mind: * having more than 2 levels, with Cloudlfare DNS, will create TLS problems. Like: dev01.subdomain.example.com, instead of dev01.example.com. The first one will not …
-
(Quote) I use MXroute for all the emails - makes migrations a lot simpler. With a spearate DNS (Cloudflare for now) service. While I've had problems with using Softaculous WP migration/cloning tool migrating from Myw.pt servers, migration to Myw.pt…
-
I configure subdomains as domains in DirectAdmin. And then it all works fine. Not sure about automatic migrations though - suppose you might have to do migrations manually. Also - think it makes sense to create a separate account for each website (e…

(Quote) BLASPHEMY! Stop that. Stop it right away! See the tag? Openyl Gay, and Official Troll? Deank is providing a valuable service to this community. Letting people know when they are PMS-ing, or just being stupid. Carry on...
-
(Quote) Then it would make sense to change providers, or get one reseller account (with the same, or some other provider). Related to the topic (OP): A brief introspection (helps put things into perspective, at least for me).
-
(Quote) When it comes to cPanel reseller hosting of good quality (performance, uptime, even given resources) - I'm afraid even their new pricing (especially if you get at least a 50% discount) is among the better ones. I've got more than a full yea…
-
(Quote) For all I know - no discount is honored over 50%. Think that's most you can expect. But do check with them.
-
(Quote) John indeed. :) As far as I'm concerned, being a pessimist, I more often get pleasantly surprised. (Image) (Quote) Using eastern US and London locations - they are both OK (so far). https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0Be4Xza1PrM
-
(Quote) That's... brilliant! :) (Image) Just brilliant... marketing, public relations, customer trust and all. Sorry man, I really understand (being a customer as well, also with a Starter plan) - but I just have to LOL to this. What else can w…

Know those hunting/working dog breeds that sometimes have their tails cut off? There's a black humour joke about a man cutting his dog's tail it two smaller increments - so it doesn't hurt as much. Well - this HostMantis pricing looks a bit like it.…
-
The announcement: https://my.hostmantis.com/announcements/143/Pricing-Changes-for-2021.html Was expecting it - could have made the announcement sooner (since the cPanel 2nd price hike announcement). Will see in a years time how much exactly will r…
-
(Quote) It seems fairly limited compared to cPanel. Can't say I like it. Not very intuitive, nor does it allow simple things - like database export/download, to name just one from the top of my head. I would bet a beer that it was designed to preve…
-
No. From what I could figure, especially for my intended use, it's more hassle (potential problems) than it helps.
-
(Quote) Rakija always! It felt really bad last time I got sober. P.S. Thank you very much for the design/layout. It is some food for thought.
-
(Quote) And we all know dentistry is just a front for the potassium smuggling operation, using pidgeons... :)
-
(Quote) Thanks. What's your take on light-gray. Like this: https://test1.bikegremlin.com/ I personally like the black a lot more, but I wouldn't take my opinion seriously when it comes to visual design. :)
-
I meant the area around the page content. It's all put on a "black canvas" so to speak.
-
(Quote) It's no rush at all. Like I said - I wouldn't trust my opinion on whether it looks good. Same goes for most of my friends. We're all "technical", but not very visual. Or just plain idiots. :) But I'd be happy to try your suggeste…

Sort of a feedback request. Here's a link of a "review/feedback" for my cycling website (link should start at 945 seconds - 15:45 minutes, and the part on my website lasts for about one minute): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1LxsyoG670s&…
