Taking a break from this subreddit... reddit / selfhosted ---------------------------------------------------------------------- thisiszeev · 2023-11-20 18:52 I had to delete my previous post about what we hosting control panels are being used by those who also have webhost businesses. I just can't spend the next 20 days trying to explain 1. Data Centers Exist 2. How SMTP works 3. That webhosting has a very high profit margin 4. No sane person hosts a business server in their basement. See point 1. 5. How to get off blacklists 6. Hosting a website or email is not the same as giving someone *full access* to your server. 7. How shared hosting works. 8. And and and I've been in the hosting business for 19 years. It's a good income. And it's what got me interested in having a homelab and selfhosting as a hobby. It's also what got me into using Linux as a daily driver. But too many people here are so narrow minded and have zero concept of the existence of anything outside their own home lab. I just wanted to find out, from those who ALSO run hosting servers in actual data centers (which do exist despite what you heard Alex Jones tell you). I just wanted to know what was other people's choice of hosting panel. I might come back at a later stage but I can't deal with this level of intellect that I have encountered tonight. Cheers, I'm out, and thank you for all the fish. 42 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- EndlessHiway · 2023-11-20 18:53 See ya. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- pooamalgam · 2023-11-20 19:03 >But too many people here are so narrow minded and have zero concept of the existence of anything outside \[their own experience\] This isn't a problem of this specific subreddit, but rather as social media as a whole. If this kind of response affects you in a way that it causes you stress in your real life, I'd say a break from social media as a whole is probably the best way to go. I don't mean anything here in an accusatory way, and on the contrary, I have also experienced this kind of thing from time to time when it comes to online interaction, and have likewise taken a break when it happens. I hope your break helps you get your mind off these ultimately inconsequential online stressors and back on the things that really matter IRL. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- No_Dragonfruit_5882 · 2023-11-20 19:05 Your 4. point is stupid. I have everything for serveral companys hosted at home with 2 Grid connections, Generator Backup + tripple Wan connection + 5g Failover. And iam feeling pretty sane. And good that your taking a break, nobody likes people asking for advice and then just throwing stupid shit at them. Your Business is fully dependent on 3. Party Services, that alone is a fucking huge Red flag. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- EndlessHiway · 2023-11-20 19:09 After re-reading your melodramatic post, your original post was off topic for this sub. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- ThePixlPirate · 2023-11-20 19:09 This isn’t an airport, you don’t have to announce your departure ---------------------------------------------------------------------- SamSausages · 2023-11-20 19:25 Lost me at #4. Seems a bit... narrow minded and some have zero concept of the existence of redundancy in power and WAN in a home environment. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- dev_all_the_ops · 2023-11-20 19:28 You are annoyed that a Reddit about self hosting is full of narrow minded people only interested in self hosting? I recommend you got outside and leave Reddit alone for a while. This place isn’t for you. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- daveskube · 2023-11-20 19:29 Sounds like a “you” problem to me. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- cdemi · 2023-11-20 19:33 Genuine question: how can you make money from hosting if you're renting bandwidth, compute and storage from another hosting company. From your description it seems that you just offer a control panel on top, but practically all the hosting providers have simple packages with control panels like you offer and most probably they can offer them cheaper because economies of scale (unless you oversubscribe a lot more than they do) So what does your hosting company offer better than the billions of others? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Known-Watercress7296 · 2023-11-20 19:43 Shit. What can we of lower intellect possibly do to temp you back for the next 20 days to educate us? Hoping you find some way to forgive and bring your shining light once more to our dark little subreddit. We can't survive on just the knowledge of Alex Jones, but with you and Alex anything seems possible. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- wsamh · 2023-11-20 19:46 You understand this a subreddit to learn about self hosting and to learn from people who are experienced in this field. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- thekrautboy · 2023-11-20 19:54 Wait, are we supposed to make a public announcement when we are tired of this place?! ---------------------------------------------------------------------- thekrautboy · 2023-11-20 20:00 > And iam feeling pretty sane. Thats exactly what a insane person would say. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Raithmir · 2023-11-20 20:11 You don't have to announce you're leaving but, well, bon voyage I guess? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Plane_Resolution7133 · 2023-11-20 20:27 The further drop in intellect when you leave will be dramatic. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- HejdaaNils · 2023-11-20 20:40 /r/sysadmin might be more helpful on your question, though lately it's been mostly job griping posts. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- ella_bell · 2023-11-20 20:42 Your superiority complex won’t be missed ---------------------------------------------------------------------- SilverAggravating489 · 2023-11-20 20:49 who are you? xD ---------------------------------------------------------------------- MRP_yt · 2023-11-20 21:03 this one got me :D 100% i will use this in a future ---------------------------------------------------------------------- [deleted] · 2023-11-20 22:00 [deleted] ---------------------------------------------------------------------- zakafx · 2023-11-20 22:03 lol blOCkeD ---------------------------------------------------------------------- ElevenNotes · 2023-11-20 22:03 Yes please, but daily, with lots of emojis. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- ElevenNotes · 2023-11-20 22:05 /r/HomeDataCenter exists you know ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Lobbelt · 2023-11-20 22:51 It seems like you do need a break from this sub, but pretty sure it's not this sub's fault. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Cirx0808 · 2023-11-20 22:57 You got that wrong. This sub needs a break from this idiot that thinks he can self proclaim himself as our lecturer on how to's. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- CantaloupeForty · 2023-11-20 23:38 Don't let the door hit your arse on the way out. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- vin_victor7 · 2023-11-20 23:39 I feel bad for your customers. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- beepbeepimmmajeep · 2023-11-21 00:44 Does this mean if I need one on one assistance with my projects I can’t DM you anymore? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- smarlitos_ · 2023-11-21 01:09 He should go to r/webhosting instead of r/selfhosted ---------------------------------------------------------------------- thekrautboy · 2023-11-21 01:48 Also please use hashtags on Reddit, thanks. 🚀🚀🚀 #Leaving #Goodbye ---------------------------------------------------------------------- EndlessHiway · 2023-11-21 02:09 He didn't seem very bright. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Plausibility_Migrain · 2023-11-21 02:14 No need to announce your flounce. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- multidollar · 2023-11-21 02:40 Good riddance to bad rubbish ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Apocolyptic_Gopher · 2023-11-21 03:27 oooohh I didn't. Thanks for that! ---------------------------------------------------------------------- selfexpression101 · 2023-11-21 04:18 Be the change you want to be in the world. If you want this community to be as elite as you then you should stay and teach us about those things you said you didn't want to explain. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- mrkesu · 2023-11-21 05:23 >I might come back at a later stage but I can't deal with this level of intellect that I have encountered tonight. No you're right, we're all very dumb and you should probably stay away. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- servergeek82 · 2023-11-21 06:32 Webmin, cockpit, I have too many servers. I have 6 servers and using 1. Is 256gb of ram enough? Enjoy the smoke break. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- s3r3ng · 2023-11-21 09:41 What I know is that I have vastly more compute and disk at home than I can afford to run in any cloud. So it seems a shame to not use it - perhaps with a cloud front end and secured connection to the home equipment. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Spuxilet · 2023-11-21 09:56 You wanted to find out from those who ALSO run hosting servers in actual data centers what is their hosting panel on selfhosted community? With your higher intellect you should agree with me that you are an IDIOT ;) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- darvs7 · 2023-11-21 13:25 We should stock up on Brain Force Plus either way. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- pogky_thunder · 2023-11-21 14:09 I'm not crazy, my mother had me tested. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Known-Watercress7296 · 2023-11-21 14:10 Real Brain Force Plus tho, from an official retailer. Not some homemade shit like you'd find on r/selfhosted ---------------------------------------------------------------------- terAREya · 2023-11-21 17:21 4. No sane person hosts a business server in their basement. ​ ​ Mine is in my den. Basement floods from time to time and I agree, hosting something where it floods is stupid. ​ Please come back so we can argue about plex vs emby or apple vs intel and other non-selfhosted subjects ---------------------------------------------------------------------- BeatherlessFiped · 2023-11-21 18:24 https://tenor.com/bjdsB.gif
