Review section went bad
Affiliate links in every thread
Clicked 3 reviews last week
All same referral code
Actual user experience buried
Mods do nothing
Affiliate links clutter actual reviews
How do I know if a link is affiliate? I just click them
I run a small site on Vultr and wanted to see if I should switch. Hard to tell what is real now.

This is exactly why I started posting raw benchmark numbers! Affiliate folks never include Geekbench scores because the cheap plans would look terrible!
My Ampere at InterServer: 1204 single core, runs circles around their x86 lineup at same price. Insane value. But you would not know from the "review" with seventeen exclamation points and a referral banner.
We need a clean comparison thread. No links. Just specs and uptime.
one small ping for man...
Before anyone switches hosts, did you test your restore?
- 3 sources of truth
- 2 formats (screenshot the uptime, save the ticket response)
- 1 place without affiliate codes
I have been burned by a "glowing review" where the poster never actually migrated. Their "review" was the control panel screenshot from signup.
Happy to help organize a clean thread. No links. Just experience.
