Self hosting in the cloud can be a bit counterproductive price wise.
You can run docker on a $100 USFF i7 pc and stuff 32G-64G and a big SSD in for cheap. That'll run for years and you could add a second host for redundancy. Depends on your maintenance and failure tolerance.
Or you probably already have some spare hardware, maybe an old laptop kicking around.

- paradite 2y agoCool! Didn't know there's a free service. Gonna give it a try this weekend!

Pair that with a URL shortener like Yourls and you can have easy, convenient short names to access your self hosted systems.
