> start renting dedicated hetzner box with 32 gigs of ram and 8 cores for 72 euros a few months ago> use it both as a dev box for my hobby projects and some self hosted services (minecraft server, git repo, syncthing, etc.)> friends are too busy to play minecraft for the foreseeable future and I'm short on cash, check out what I can reasonably downgrade to> the exact same box with the exact same specs costs 167 euros per month nowHetzner grandfathered in prices for existing servers so if I choose to switch I will have to switch to a potato for any significant drop in costs. I checked vultr as well and their prices are similarly crazy. Are there any VPS vendors who haven't raised prices yet?
>>109067831why do you need so much hardware? I rent a vps for 10€. entirely sufficient to host my shit.
>>109067857actually even the most expensive tier is less than 50€. I use Contabo.
>>109067857>use case for hardware?My hobby projects, besides hosting, consist largely of long-running CPU-heavy work on either large datasets or high volume data feeds (= algo trading)
It's time to homeserver maxx, anon. Bought picrel last winter because Hetzner's VPS pricing and performance started getting unbearable. Really good timing.I have the cheapest 5 yuro VPS they have as a wireguard tunnel so I still have a datacenter IP.
>>109067831flokinet still has reasonable prices:https://flokinet.is/
>>109067870seems like your algo trading is a failure if you are short on cash :^)
>>109067875do you have any usable guide for wireguard tunnel setup, anon? I wasted a lot of time to achieve something like this and the result was... not optimal
>>109067831>dedicatedfor what reason? what do you do?
i got a cheap 5 euro server4you vpsits bretty gud
also looks like they ended their referral program
>>109067986>jarvis, copy and paste the definition of "hobby"
>>109067831those are low end specs your own pc is probably better
>>109068059I hate to admit it but I largerly just gemini'd the set up. It's quite simple though, I have it mostly documented.
Ionos. Bandwidth is unmetered.
>>109068258we really can't have nice things, can we.FUCK you AI faggotsFUCK you vibe codersFUCK you AI companies
>>109068059WireGuard is trivial to set up: https://www.wireguard.com/quickstart/It is unlikely that you will run into any issues if there is nothing else meant to be public-facing / accessible from the outside world on the host machine.
>>109068059My faggot in Christ just port forward you don’t need to sit behind a vpn
>>109067831Aren't they building a TREMENDOUS number of datacenters, some may say the best datacenters? Shouldn't prices be going down?
>>109067875>I still have a datacenter IP.i have a vps and i have no idea why this is desirable at all. use it as a proxy and half the internet bans you, seedboxing can be done on literally any IP, couldn't care less which IP my web server is hosted on.huh?
>>109067831for years retards said "just rent it" while i collected hardware for local everything guess whose laughing now i got so much ram hdds i got it all
>>109067831just get Kimsufi bro
>>109067831Remember: people being priced out of owning compute is a conspiracy theory.Be a good goy and buy minecraft, github and onedrive subscription.
>>109072043but i need a computer to use those things
>>109070841I run several actual websites and services through it, including self-hosted email. It's pretty much a production box.
>>109071271Wow, this is better and cheaper than my current vps. I guess the throughput is lower, but maybe it looks like no data cap? The physical data cap would be around 3TB a month
>>109067831i bought a minipc a year ago, i set it up at my parent's home, it's a kodi device for them so they are happy as they can watch their pirated shows, it's a server with fiber connection for me, so i'm happy.just run your own servers dude.
>>109072833oh and if you wonder why i didn't set it up at my place, i live in the middle of fucking nowhere in the mountains and the connection isn't as good as theirs.
