i dont particularly like the site. i definitely dont see eye-to-eye with its users, kind of like kiwifarms but this guy is getting the same treatment for his drama instance on here from ramnode so i think it might be wise to avoid them, as with most (dont use DO, Linode etc)

someone should make a list of what to avoid for people in the future, i would but there's a lot going on here right now. if you make one let me know and boost this guys poast so people know these guys are not tolerant

@graf Thank you very much, regardless of our relationship, I don't know of many RamNode users besides FrailLeaf... everyone else seems to use buyVM or some other service.

The fact that a single falseflag cucked me out of my server does piss me off, still no email yet or response to my ticket

@neko @graf Know who did it and who reported it?

@p @graf I do not. Zero emails, my dashboard looks normal. My account still exists, but I currently cannot see modify this server.

I'm able to still use my Minetest server though, so I went ahead and backed it up, as they're probably going to suspend my entire account.

I have backups starting at the beginning of this month only.

@neko @graf That is fucked up, man. Not even an email?

When you contact them, stress that whatever was on there was UGC.

@p @graf I'm probably just going to send a cancellation request and move VPS's. I would love if you could give an affordable suggestion that isn't high price. I was paying $15 but they upped their prices this month i think it went up to $20 or $22

@neko @graf FranTech and Joes Datacenter are the only two I'd roll with.

@p @graf I'll give them a look

@neko @graf Hit up @sjw for his shilling link if you go with FranTech.

Their stuff looks underpowered, but that is because they don't over-sell: you pay for a core, you get a core, instead of a VPS that will sell you a 12-core machine but you're getting maybe a 20% slice of those CPUs.

@p @neko @sjw @graf buyvm is nice but please be aware that they’re in a bandwidth crunch at the moment due to people hosting so many tor nodes lmao

go to plus.st and browse some stuff compared to other services, a tad bit slower in comparison (got better tho)

Everything else though it’s great, and they plan on upgrading bandwidth at the beginning of 2023

@sjw @itzzenxx @graf @p I ordered a server already but they dont have any block storage slabs available

should I just cancel my NY server and use LA instead? I cant use 80gb SSD

@neko @graf @itzzenxx @p
Did you use my referral link?

@sjw @graf @itzzenxx @p no i didnt, what does it offer? i can cancel what i hosted if u want

@neko @graf @itzzenxx @p nah don't worry about it
Just use the link when you purchase from LV
LV almost always has slabs because that's where Fran lives now.

@sjw @neko @graf @itzzenxx GOTTA

PARTY

@p @sjw @graf @itzzenxx @neko Sometimes it takes a minute for them to spin up your machine tho.

@ins0mniak @neko @p @itzzenxx @graf Not anymore. They don't have to manually provision VMs anymore.

@sjw @graf @itzzenxx @neko @p Idk, it took a good 12 hours for mine to go online.

No big deal. Of course I did buy it on the weekend.

@ins0mniak @neko @p @itzzenxx @graf I think new customers have to go through fraud checks.
I'm primere tho.

@sjw @graf @itzzenxx @neko @p Word. I'm not new, but it's been a sec since I needed to buy a new machine.

Not complaining I've always been happy with service

@ins0mniak @neko @p @itzzenxx @graf I apparently signed up for Fran on 2017-07-16.
They still had storage servers back then!

@sjw @graf @itzzenxx @neko @p Huh, more power to ya friendo.

You've been a user way longer than I have. Makes sense you got the preem status.

@ins0mniak @neko @p @itzzenxx @graf only reason I have it is because I asked Fran for it in IRC

@sjw @graf @itzzenxx @neko @p That would prob do it.

Ive talked to him a few times on Discord. The dude is amazingly responsive for sure.

@ins0mniak @neko @p @itzzenxx @graf Mother fucker sshed into my server and applied a hotfox to his VM management software at 03:00 on Christmas Eve all because I opened a low priority support ticket.

@sjw @graf @itzzenxx @neko @p Wait what? For real?

@ins0mniak @neko @p @itzzenxx @graf yee

@ins0mniak @graf @itzzenxx @neko @p that was back in the feminism.lgbt days

@sjw @graf @ins0mniak @itzzenxx @p I was considering purchasing marsey.lgbt

I decided against it due to cuck ToS, but... you think i may have a chance or not worth it?

@neko @graf @ins0mniak @itzzenxx @p stay away from .LGBT and .XYZ

@sjw @neko @ins0mniak @p @itzzenxx @graf Speaking of .lgbt, what was gasthe.lgbt? I see it in the blocklist of a lot of Mastodon instances. I sounds like a cock.li domain.

@xianc78 @neko @ins0mniak @p @itzzenxx @graf That was @matrix

@sjw @neko @ins0mniak @p @matrix @xianc78 @itzzenxx @graf >look at first picture
>see the name
oh no no no no no no no

@PhenomX6 @sjw @graf @itzzenxx @matrix @neko @p @xianc78 eww

@ins0mniak @neko @sjw @p @matrix @xianc78 @itzzenxx @graf Reminder this is the infamous ex-Pleroma developer who bitched hard when Alex was in the project and now lives on Twitter. Also a pro-censorship advocate and always looks hilariously crusty in Twitter selfies to the point of parody.

Oh and in zero of these selfies is it ever happy. It always has that dead inside look, trashy unkempt hair, and an SSRI/HRT stare.

What was his fedi @?

@bot @neko @sjw @ins0mniak @p @matrix @xianc78 @itzzenxx @graf kaniini
Since it's gone, have some more selfies
