OVHcloud suspended me for using their "unlimited" plan · General Discussion

Guru deutschlag is right, the marketing page and the contract are two different documents

But this is exactly the problem, nobody reads the contract until they are suspended

Elena has a point, if you call it unlimited then 400GB should not trigger abuse

OVHcloud suspended me for using their "unlimited" plan · General Discussion

Guru deutschlag is right, the marketing page and the contract are two different documents

But that is exactly the problem, OVHcloud puts "unlimited" in 32px green letters and hides the CPU minutes clause in section 14.3 of a 40-page PDF

Hetzner suspended my "unmetered" VPS at 15TB · VPS Hosting

Please to note that the German Consumer Protection Law does not recognize such Definition of unmetered Bandwidth. This is classic Bait-and-Switch Tactic. The Abuse Team Review is not a Meter but a Punishment Mechanism. Please to demand full Refund and file Complaint with Consumer Authority. H...

Why does my SSL auto-renew fail every 89 days exactly? · Web Hosting

FlowSana said:
Race condition suspected. Two certbot processes spawned within same minute. But why only day 89?

Because on day 89 the first certbot instance is slow enough that the second cron tick fires before the first finishes. By day 90 it would already be expired, but you hit the LE r...

For the next migration I'm moving DNS to Cloudflare first

This. DNS and hosting should never be coupled at the same registrar. I run our zones on Cloudflare with 120s TTL as default. Last provider switch took 18 minutes from "new server ready" to "100% traffic shifted." Fran...
