Great to see them features on HN!
- levosmetalo 8y agoHonestly, I was a bit worried when switching from Digitalocean, but everything still works perfectly for half the price. The only lacking part is the general Linux documentation and how-tos, but whatever DO writes still applies to all other providers. They are the best kept hosting secret.
- joering2 8y ago+1. Smart move switching away from DigitalOcean. I dont know what the heck is going on with them recently but I started moving away as well. What broke camels back was limit on number of servers you can have which is 12 at the moment i believe. How the heck am i going to grow a startup if thats a ceiling? Google is also full of stories of abruptly interrupted and frozen accounts that you have tiny chance of getting resumed because they don’t tell you what is wring due to “security concerns”.
- jarland 8y agoHey friend, I'm sorry that you've had a bad experience, but we can help. Our support team will gladly increase that limit for you on request. On the stories that you read, I hear you. It's a tough situation because I don't want to discount anyone's story. What I do want to point out is that there are two sides to every story, and in such a relationship one party has the duty of protecting privacy of the other. Sometimes we make mistakes and we need to correct it. Sometimes what we do upsets people when we work to protect our customers from those who would seek to abuse our platform. Abuse of our platform lowers quality of service for everyone, and that is why it is our duty to manage that. Each story will have it's own variables, and I'm happy to discuss anyone's situation with them personally. If you have any questions or there is anything I can personally help with, please feel free to reach out at jdonnell@digitalocean.com. Jarland
