I am looking for a #european #FreeBSD #Hosting supplier.

I love #Vultr, they were privately owned, but sadly they are in the US and just received $333 million for #AI.

Time to go.

IPv6 only Servers with Cloudron 8

Cloud Providers like AWS, Hetzner have started to charge for IPv4 addresses. Cloudron 7.1 added IPv6 support but still required an IPv4.

We have tested IPv6 only server setups on #AWS, #Hetzner, #Upcloud & #Vultr and they work great! As a heads up, IPv6 is a totally separate network protocol from IPv4. As such, if you want to host public facing websites and apps, you should still use servers with IPv4.

TODAY we will start to restrict access to @Vultr IP addresses querying our DNSBLs. To stay protected by the data register for @SpamhausTech FREE Data Query Service - it takes minutes to change config

In the wake of the #vultr debacle, I'd encourage anyone who's considering #openbsdamsterdam to go for it. In my 3+ years of using it I've had no problems, and the support is incredibly good. They also donate to #openbsd. Win/win.

a case of legalese confusion:

Cloud server host #Vultr rips user data ownership clause from #ToS after web outrage

Well I spent last evening and this morning moving all my web stuff off of #vultr. Luckily it wasn't too much.

My checklist for setting up a server just moved up a few places in the blog posts to write queue

#vultr is now claiming the contract language is a goof. Nah, dude. They got caught.

Look alive, Chooms! It's morning once again in Night City, New Cyberia, and the Sprawl, and the skies are thick and grey with rain clouds! Get your respirators and heavy duty slickers if you're planning to do any street recon!

Some grunge from Hurly Burly is in the playlist for today!

We got an update from @djsundog on what's going on with #vultr and their #enshittification: https://toot-lab.reclaim.technology/@djsundog/112173311665183603

And today's news is awesome, at least! #Veilid has just been bumped to v0.3.0!
https://veilid.com/

Veilid is the Thing. As it grows and continues to develop, Veilid will be able to do good for us all. This is the revolution, Chooms, and our friends, those preem Chooms known as the Cult of the Dead Cow, are the architects. The Bovine Mother is the guide. .ooM

That's all for this Thursday morning brain dump, friends! Be safe as you're out there Netrunning and smashing the system! Be excellent to one another and #HackThePlanet! DJ Jotarō, out!

Of course the big scare (it's totally because of AI!!!!) regarding the #Vultr TOS change was nonsense
The relevant part of the TOS didn't even change!

Man, I've been a big fan of #VULTR for ages, since the ooooold days, but this is depressing.

Warning: Vultr (a major cloud provider) is now claiming full perpetual commercial rights over all hosted content

https://old.reddit.com/r/selfhosted/comments/1bouuv7/warning_vultr_a_major_cloud_provider_is_now/

New blog post: #Vultr just betrayed us.

I've recommended them for years. Will be moving off immediately. #sysadmin

No, not a joke.

[edit: muting this thread. I don't have time to argue with folks who haven't been screwed by contract language just like this.]

Hey everyone! #vultr just enshittified!

They re claiming ownership of all intellectual property you host on their VMs.

https://grimgreenfo.rest/notes/9rdle0uyo4d30029

Clear violation of copyright law.

[edit: muting this. I got too much to do. Like moving servers. And too many of you don't understand that contracts must be read as a hostile, abusive, manipulative party would interpret them. I've worked with too many bastards who did exactly that and got away with it. Capitalism is not polite.]
