    ad 1. You seem to not have paid much attention to the fact that part of the audience you are talking to is leaving another company’s platform because of what is now called “enshittification”. Part of that includes targeted advertising. Why would a cooperative that is driven by such an interest trust your agency?
    ad 2. Hope so that you are paying your contractors! ;-)
    ad 3. I’ll take it. potentially.
    ad 4. bruh!

    You can Relax knowing that we are taking care for you of install, configuration, encryption, backups, software updates, os upgrades, live monitoring, alerts, live migrations without downtime …

    I can also relax as the NSA and certainly others too, keep backups of all my tracking.

      Hey brave anonymous

      ad1) We are not related to Reddit in anyway, we are open source lovers, no lock in, we want to create an ecosystem for open source authors … not another AWS …

      ad2) Of course we do! Why do you always guess the worst?

      ad3) Potentially? what do you mean? https://docs.elest.io/books/backups/page/overview We have several ways of doing and downloading full backups including the data and the software stack to be run anywhere else …

      Finally, all backups are encrypted, so not sure about NSA or anything else …

      Question for you: are you taking your pills as prescribed by your doctor? :)

            Reading this was funny. Maybe its the tism but i couldnt tell if this was two people being honest with one another or being passive aggressive?

            Eitherway, thanks for making the entry to creating your own instance easier for non-techies. Pls keep the “cancel at anytime” thing.

              I think the OP had a little passive agressiveness go over his head, then again I’m not the best at reading social cues (queues?)
