digital rent for the digital landlords.
up until now ive been hosting my site on a DigitalOcean droplet with 8GB of memory. the reason being that that's how much I needed to play Minecraft: Vault Hunters. But that costs like $40 a month and I don't play minecraft all that much anymore. so I'm downsizing.
I've temporarily downgraded that server to its minimum, and I'm spinning up a new server which is even smaller than that. DigitalOcean has a $6/mo tier which gives you 10 GB storage and 1 GB memory, which is plenty for hosting a personal site. Heck, its probably enough to host several personal sites. And if storage is an issue... well, I'll figure that out later, but even paying by the gigabyte, storage is cheaper than memory.
Oh yeah also: you might notice that the url for this entry is currently /b/20. I'm making all my urls shorter, just because I can. This is gonna break a few permalinks, but oh well. I trust y'all will figure it out.
Oh! Speaking of which: the source is visible at https://git.hatspace.net/nycki/nycki.net. If you want a site hosted on hatspace, just drop me a line! Currently I'm running static hosting with apache2 but at some point I'll figure out php and/or expressjs, I swear.
