Trying to figure out distribution channels, build awareness and so on is the hard yards in 2025. - Source: Hacker News / 4 months ago

• Ask HN: If not Kubernetes, what do you use to run your apps?

  I have a single server running https://pagecord.com. I use Hatchbox on a Hetzner server. I wrote a bit about it here: https://olly.pagecord.com/migrating-the-pagecord-rails-app-from-aws-to-hetzner-373cf4cc I have plenty of paying customers but I still think K8s would be complete overkill at this stage. - Source: Hacker News / 4 months ago
