Does it strike anyone as shady to have a list price of 17.99/mo for 1 CPU, 1gb ram server www.racknerd.com/kvm-vps which I can’t even begin to think how to justify such a high price.

And then at the same time perpetual new year and black Friday sale www.racknerd.com/BlackFriday/ that charges about 2$ a month for more powerful setup. Together with a scarcity marketing tactic of a clock ticking that you can refresh and reset.

Could just set up a reasonable day to day price, attract regular customers who might scale up some instances for a project, but no this was the direction they explicitly chose.

Do keep in mind that RackNerd owns lowendbox. Not to say they are a bad host (I’ve been happy with them personally!)

Eh? Genuinely interested to hear your sources for this.

I didn’t know that! Well, as long as the community vets them as reliable, I’m OK with it. I won’t be hosting anything super important, but it would suck to have downtime when I’m working on something on the server, for example.

I use a VPS from RackNerd for all kinds of things (my personal Lemmy, for one). Have had it for two and a half years or so with no complaints.

MigratingtoLemmy OP ,

Thanks!
