Then immediately follows with specs and prices:
> Replit.com - $6.40/month
> 2.199GHz/1GB RAM/10GB transfer
vs
> DigitalOcean.com - $6.00/month
> 2.494GHz/1GB RAM/1TB transfer
EDIT: I originally misread 10GB as 10TB - I'll still maintain that it likely doesn't matter. It's a managed VM where deployments are handled for you, for $0.40 more, and if the author is burning through 10GB of bandwidth monthly on hobby VMs I'd be surprised.
- guraf 3y agoYour own quote says 10GB from replit vs 1,000GB from digital ocean. So, assuming your own quote is correct, DO is indeed way cheaper for anything that is more than a toy.

- semiquaver 3y ago> 9TB more of bandwidth per month I think you mixed up your units. 1TB — 10GB == 990GB. In terms of transfer cost (at least according to those numbers, which I have not verified) DO is orders of magnitude less expensive per GB. Surely that deserves “way cheaper”?
- wutwutwat 3y agoYou're totally correct. I adjusted my comment
- boguscoder 3y agoNot commenting on price but have you confused 10GB with 10 TB or am I reading everything wrong

- mksreddy 3y agoI didn’t read the article but your numbers seem to compare 1GB with 10TB.
- wutwutwat 3y agofixed comment
- xjia 3y agoBecause it's 10GB not 10TB?
- wutwutwat 3y agoThanks, didn't notice earlier
