Migrated from Contabo to OVHcloud cuz everyone said it was better lol Triple the price 6 months later im back at Contabo This is either loyalty or Nuremberg syndrome u tell me

#2

I did the same thing moved to InterServer because the specs looked amazing on paper but then I realized I was paying for ssd I didnt need and cpu cores that sat at 2 percent and their control panel was a nightmare and their support took four days to answer so I came back to Time4VPS and honestly it feels like coming home even though home is a tiny vps with 512mb ram

Fun little project for you: run both side by side for a month

I did this with RackNerd vs KnownHost, kept nginx logs in

tail -f /var/log/nginx/access.log | awk '{print $1}'

Turns out my "better" provider had worse peering to my actual users. It actually works sometimes to just... measure things instead of spec chasing.

Contabo's network isn't fancy but the latency is consistent. That's worth more than cores.

works on my bench ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

My nephew set this up for me originally on the internet box at OVHcloud

I called DELL about the RAM problem and they said I needed more storage, very confusing

Anyway I am back with Leaseweb now because the other one cost too much and my nephew said the reverse thing was broken

I dont know what stockholm is but I know what my bank account is lol

You know what would prevent these migration headaches

Memory safety. Zero-cost abstractions. Rewriting your entire stack in Rust instead of whatever Go or C++ garbage OVHcloud is running

I migrated my personal infra to a self-written orchestrator in Rust. Compile-time guarantees mean I never have runtime surprises. No stockholm syndrome when the borrow checker is your therapist

Probably runs C++. Explains the crashes. Rewrite it in Rust.
