#selfhosting week 1, phase 3B bis: Disappointment.
Subscribed to a Ionos vps in alternative to Hostinger, but the interface is much, much more complex (I'm referring to the vps and domains management) - thought Hostinger was the worst.
But, if accessibility declaration on Hostinger says "partially accessible" giving an e-mail address (not dedicated, it's the generic support), Ionos makes me point to an Italian paragraph where they claim barrier-free then says "for support, contact us through contact form", redirecting to a German accessibility page where NO FORM is displayed. Is it this way to treat customers?
Does @fsfe and @EUCommission have something to say? These are fake accessibility declarations.
You can't say you respect all customers, when you make your showcase site mostly accessible but most important feature (the vps/firewall management panels) impossible to use. To give an example, the "edit" button for a single firewall rule is labeled as "y", the delete is "]", the add rule is "@" ... Not to say that @yunohost on Ionos creates ipv6 issues, the port TCP 25 is closed and I need to call them with EXACTLY my phone number to have them open the port for me...
I must definitely try to talk to them and start the refund procedure.
Unfortunately though, Ionos would give me 240 gb hard disk for storage while hostinger, even upgrading, would give me 100.
WTF. #accessibility #blind #frustration #selfhost #vps


Hey #support guys who work in a #NOC or #datacenter or provide support for #vps hosting: if I open a support ticket about an issue, and the issue is resolved an hour later without a response to my ticket, what's the Etiquette here? Should I close the ticket as resolved without waiting for an answer? Or does that mess up your quotas or workflows or whatever? Is it impolite to close my own ticket when I notice the problem is fixed without waiting for your response? Am I taking away the satisfaction you get from closing a ticket? Or am I just making your life easier by saving you from dealing with yet one more customer.


is there any VPS provider more chad than #Contabo ?? arcanechat.me VPS went down today, the VPS will simply fail to start from the Control Panel, this WAY TOO OFTEN happens during weekends or holidays, their status page says nothing about any problems or maintenance, and if you try to write to support they will tell you "sorry it is weekend, your message will not even be stored" so I guess arcanechat.me will be down the whole weekend >:-/

friendica VPS setup on ubuntu 22.04 LTS


@Friendica Support

Hi,
I'm working on my first #friendica #VPS installation, here you'll find my initial post about general thoughts like what distro to use, size and costs.
I'm using the tutorial "creating a friendica server - ubuntu" by @Hank G ☑️.

As of now I'm doing well in the process and want to start this post to document differences and questions while installing the server.

This server is going to host an already existing friendica node I have to move from another hosting provider. That means that for example the DB doesn't have to be created from scratch but moved and other smaller details.

I will try to address the different steps of installation in answers to this post and appreciate help, ideas and observations.

I'm doing this from a #linux desktop environment from the console but there shouldn't be differences if you want to do this from a #windows machine.

It’s amazing to me just how far ahead of every other VPS provider Hetzner is in terms of server provisioning times. ~2× faster than their nearest competitor. They’re wiping the floor with the rest. For an industry obsessed with performance, this must be very embarrassing for their competitors.

PS. This is something I’ve verified first-hand in my own use of Hetzner and some of their competitors.

Does anyone have a contact we can talk to at Hetzner to get them working with Fedora CoreOS so it’s supported as a first-class citizen on their platform?

The Fedora CoreOS folks are on board, now we just need someone from Hetzner.

Very impressed with the performance of Wireguard even on a less than €4/month VPS with 2 VCPUs and 2MB RAM.

(The first set of iperf3 results is without Wireguard, the second with.)
