• Day 0 - Creating Your Own Local Server

  We normally recommend using Amazon's AWS "Free Tier" or Digital Ocean - but both require that you have a credit card. The same is true of the Microsoft Azure, Google's GCP and the vast majority of providers listed at Low End Box (https://lowendbox.com/). Source: 5 months ago

• Replit moves to permanent paid hosting after 7 years of free service

  I get them from the aggregator https://lowendbox.com when companies offer deals; some have been great, some poor, but all very cheap; I think $14/year has been a decent one. Although my current one only has 512MB RAM and isn’t enough for Rust to compile Scryer Prolog. Prolog, a language first run on the computers of 1971 and standardised around 1998. - Source: Hacker News / 6 months ago

  FWIW, I recently found a VPS offering for $1.41/month (!) @ 1.5GB RAM & 30GB HDD via https://lowendbox.com/, at https://my.racknerd.com/index.php?rp=/store/black-friday-2022 (please note I have no idea how reliable it is though!). I managed to deploy NixOS there through nixos-infect (https://github.com/elitak/nixos-infect. - Source: Hacker News / 7 months ago

• Migrating WordPress from Do to Hetzner

  Hetzner is still expensive for a blog. Check out offerings on http://lowendbox.com/ you can get a 4GB/2vCPU for like $45/year. Year, and not month. That is the kind of margin these big brand sellers have. I have been using a couple for the past 3-4 years and been pretty nice so yeah. - Source: Hacker News / 8 months ago

  Or if you don't want to run the hardware in house/home, there are hosting services available, you can setup a ton of the same things on a hosted VPS, a little cheaper since you don't have to buy the hardware, but you have a recurring payment. I have a VPS I use that's 45 for the year. Found a deal on https://lowendbox.com/. Source: 11 months ago
