I’m always interested in a cheap Colo somewhere. Anywhere in continental US is fine. I’ll ship my stuff in, fly there, and set it up and try to make it work without repeat trips. Anyone have any ideas?
One of the more crazy ones was that I just buy a home in Utah that’s rural ish to be cheap enough but also near fiber. Hard but there are some options.

If you don't know where those are, you can just look for cities with Equinix locations. Equinix isn't cheap, but some will have a warehouse on the cheap side of town with fiber to Equinix and you can rent a cabinet from them.
- renewiltord 2y agoOh surprising. I thought that those sites were for VPS alone. Thank you.
- toast0 2y agoThey have everything. Shared hosting, tiny VPS, full sized VPS, managed/dedicated, colo, IP rental, etc.

- renewiltord 2y agoHaha it’s funny I posted about that earlier in the day https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=41630783 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=41630783 They even had a $400/halfcab option earlier this year. Pity I didn’t jump on it.
