Föderation EN Sa 08.02.2025 21:54:17 The video I just boosted (https://video.fedihost.co/videos/watch/9cf467b1-7b24-4f5f-846a-151822b0fcbc) does a really good job of summing up the pros and cons of managed hosting vs VPSes. Managed hosting doesn't get as much limelight as VPSes, which is a shame as managed hosting opens up this whole area to non-technical people. Sometimes people assume that everyone can use a VPS, but for a lot of people it isn't really sustainable as it requires a commitment to fiddling with the techy stuff behind the scenes when it goes wrong. |

Föderation EN Sa 08.02.2025 22:02:12 Yeah, it's good to have options so you can do the amount of admin work that you feel comfortable with. It's kind of like building your own PC or buying a ready-made one with a warranty, it's nice that both options are available as it makes it easier for everyone to take part in the PC world. |
