@yestergearpc Did you make your own instance?! Hell Yeah!

@adam Absolutely. $30 for a 1-year VPS with enough guts and bandwidth to run 50 or so users. Finally found a use for the 5-character domain I've been using for just my email for 10+ years, but had since 2001 lol.

Who's better to control your data than you?

@yestergearpc Totally! I've been meaning to build my own upgraded home server for like 2 years now, but still haven't got around to it. Was thinking about this since it also has Jitsi & DeltaChat: selfprivacy.org/en/

@yestergearpc Also, where did you get a $30/yr VPS? I've seen like $4/mo, but that sounds really good.

@yestergearpc@ccrvb.com thank you. that's pretty tempting. i'm pretty invested in hosting at home now but the option to skip all the hassle for 30-50/year is appealing :blobcatmelt2:

@emma indeed. I have a decent home lab setup, but $30 was easier than configuring another vpn passthrough to pipe another domain into my basement lol.
