This. Not everything needs to be instant.
What do you use for price tracking across multiple hosts?
Numbers over vibes says: measure the delay, then decide. RSS for setup fees, something faster for auction.
fio, iperf, geekbench. results or gtfo.
Has anyone tried the Discord bots some hosts run? Faster than RSS?
Hetzner Discord is official and pretty fast. I got a Kimsufi alert there once before any feed updated.
Kimsufi still exists? I thought OVH killed that brand.
They still sell the servers, just under OVH now. Same cheap Atom boards.
I miss the old Kimsufi prices. 2EUR for a dedi was insane.
And the insane wait times to get one. Hours in queue for a 2 euro box.

I queued for a Kimsufi in 2017. Got it, used it for three years, disk died, not worth replacing.
Back to price tracking. I use a simple Google Sheet with IMPORTXML that pulls from a few pages. Breaks constantly.
