Selfhosted
A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.

-
Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.
-
No spam posting.
-
Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.
-
Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.
-
Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).

No trolling.

Their cheapest $5 Linux VPS isn't any better than one from a reputable host like Vultr. This isn't really a deal, just use a trusted hoster instead.
I found a code on LowEndBox which gives me 2GB RAM on a Linux vps for $2. I would be included to agree with you for their normal pricing though
If you search for vpshostingservice.co/cheapwindowsvps.com (same service) on lowendbox, you'll find a range of opinions. For non-critical use, it seems fine to me. But if you think that deal is too good to be true, you should browse more of the holiday deal threads on there, especially on black friday. It's a decent deal, just not exceptional.
