      @scottalanmiller I guess it really comes down to 2 providers.....

      RackSpace is super expensive by the way

        They also do a lot that the others do not. Load balancers, custom firewalls, database hosting, CDN, etc.

          Don't you pay for all of that? I wanted to have 1 server on RS, and they wanted $100/month...

            Which is SO weird because we have single servers there that are $15.

              Yes but being ABLE to pay for things is a pretty big deal compared to not being able to get them at all.

                  LOL. But that's on new ones. I can spin it up right now.

                  I see a $50 minimum on "managed service accounts", but only $50, not $100.

                    @scottalanmiller you have to add on the cost of the VM too 😉

                      If it's $50 + VM (which is so weird) it's still only $65.

                        Linode is who we were forgetting. Gotta test them out, too.

                          Going to update this for Amazon Lightsail, and make any needed changes.
