Caramba! 8 days down per year, nossa, the clients don't complain kkkkk?
Not saying is bad, not saying is good neither... but double negation here: I don't don't think they know, you know? The free thing
Meandering thought: spent three years on Vultr free, never had no problem, but also never had no client who needed 99.9% neither. Warm and fuzzy until is not, ne?
The architecture is not not clever, beto gives that. But the stress? The waking up at 3am? Don't see that in the diagram, friend
