Omg this new instance is so snappy currently. It’s more responsive on my phone than Twitter is.

@patricia what stats are you using for your server? I had to upgrade from a t4g.micro to a t4g.small (AWS EC2) because I kept getting transient server errors, I think due to maxing out 1GB of RAM. Sadly small isn't free tier anymore.

@elfprince13 lol I’m currently at 512MB because it was the absolute cheapest on Digital Ocean at 4$/month. I’m gonna try to splurge for the second cheapest coming in at a whopping 6$ 😱

@patricia @elfprince13 Probably not want you want and currently they are not open for registerations but the smallest managed hosting from masto.host is $6/month

@ruari @patricia I would have happily payed for that instead of DIYing if they were open

@elfprince13 @patricia Well slightly more expensive for the ir cheapest Mastodon instance but there is also fedi.monster (they also offer GoToSocial and Pixelfed)

@elfprince13 I should add however that I do not know anyone who uses them but I do know several who use mast.host (myself included).

The plan is for masto.host to open up again at some point though.

@patricia

@elfprince13 @ruari there was a reason I didn’t pick GoToSocial… migration issues? I don’t remember anymore 🙈
