Debian for most things, Ubuntu for a tiny number of things and CentOS only where WHM/cPanel is required.

"Must be able to create at least 1 VPS per $7 spent (monthly or equivalent)" I think that is a very solid basis for the rules. Pretty much covers all the cases I can think of..
-
(Quote) I think Anthony nailed it. Pricing it per vps allowed isn't the answer either, it's the big picture of total resources plus the number of locations - extras like number of cpu per instance and the premiumness of locations are extra/overs.
-
(Quote) You're given a set of resources (example 2gb ram, 20gb ssd, 2 ipv4) you use the control panel to create your own VPS from those resources. They come in multiple locations depending on the provider.
-
@HostDoc thanks for the explanation from your point of view. Resource pools are awesome. I forgot to add too, the panel - virtualizor lets you modify an instances resources like memory, disk, etc whereas solusvm requires a ticket to have that done.…

(Quote) Not quite. With virtualizor and solusvm it can deny creation if the node hasn't got the specs. Not ideal, but not at all an uncommon sight to see that message as a customer, in my experience. Your example of 20gb and 2000gb would be insane

(Quote) Not sure where I got the cage part then.. lol
-
Canary refers to "canary in the cage". To cut a long story short, if the canary squawks then shit's gone bad.
-
Resource pools particularly with multiple locations can be more valuable than the equivalent resources in the one VPS, if that makes any sense. The premiumness of locations on offer, ex most offer more than 5 (smarthost is at 13 iirc), and some just…

I've already had the service for a year, just renewed again a few days back. It's likely a Chinese scam, but so far the service has been relatively good, as much as it pains me to say. For the lulz and free potassium.

(Quote) I wouldn't suggest it, not a good idea to push the bounds too far on a free service run by a genuinely decent provider :-)
-
There's also the KVM and VZ pools from anyNode, around the same price point which I've used and are indeed quality potassium. It's no secret I love resource pools, especially if they are cheap. As for a price guideline, that's incredibly tricky bec…

(Quote) Mainly because I already have a Windows 7 CD and a legit license for it, which I got for free a while back. I'm not keen on paying for Windows 10 and prefer to keep the install clean without cracks and activators adding extra shit (potential…

I haven't used Windows for a very long time, I managed to ditch Windows completely a few years back. For anything that insists on Windows, applications only, I don't play games often, I have a VM with Windows 7 running.

(Quote) If your workflow depends on Windows, it's kinda unavoidable having to dual boot or run Linux virtualized for your daily driving. X2go is an awesome, faster and generally better alternative to VNC for Linux remote desktops.
-
It could work, for experimental purposes, if you install Proxmox and then install a desktop environment. I don't know how well it would work, but you could run a Windows guest with the GPU passed to it and an extra monitor? Never tried it but the pi…

Thanks for providing this @seriesn :-) I've had my free hosting for a few days now, using it to host a baby Blesta install (the license came free with my VPS and I wasn't keen on setting up a webserver on that box because it's for other purposes) …

I like that idea @FAT32 :-)
-
(Quote) Sounds awesome actually :-) I'm happy to volunteer to help with that, if there's anything I can do. Wonder if there's something on github for some inspiration..
-
If not, that's a pretty nice idea.. similar to SB?
-
(Quote) Slightly crammy is how I like my free hosting :-) The fact it comes with softaculous impresses me, for a free service, that's a very convenient bonus. It just made sense to install Blesta there, so I can genuinely idle my 2 VPSs :-) Lookin…
