Its a cool idea, if it werent for the fact that Im disconnected from time to time :p
<sad_plan>
not sure if they just keep rebooting the vps, or if tmux is killed by the admins of w/e. I just find it annoying
<kris_>
i just have soju running on one of my vps'
<kris_>
i usually do a monthly reboot or so depending on vulns and whatnot
<kris_>
i run a rolling release on all of my stuff though so i usually try to keep my systems fairly updated
<sad_plan>
I get that. running fedora or something?
<sad_plan>
im starting to consider a vps, but Im not a fan of having to pay for something that I can get for free :p
<kris_>
i run void on like 14/17 of my systems
<sad_plan>
there are some free tier vps' though
<kris_>
the others are a mix of freebsd, openbsd, and 2 debian boxes
<sad_plan>
damn, you got 17 systems?
<kris_>
im including VMs and containers
<sad_plan>
ah
<kris_>
and base installs
<kris_>
its a lot to keep up to date since void rolls
<sad_plan>
why on earth do you need 17 though?
<kris_>
i host a *lot* of stuff
<sad_plan>
I see
<kris_>
most of it isnt public though
<kris_>
one of the few things that is would be my searxng instance at https://search.kris.sh/
<kris_>
that's also probably the most high maintenance thing i host because usually when i sync my fork with upstream i have to find out what PR broke XYZ
<sad_plan>
hm, I see. I never really knew what I would do with a vps, but I suppose I would just host a few things instead. invidious for one perhaps
<sad_plan>
sounds tedious
<kris_>
somewhat but it shits on every other search engine
<sad_plan>
as oposed to just running ddg
<sad_plan>
I get that
<kris_>
well searxng searches are actually anonymized
<kris_>
the reason this is public is because the more people that use it the less identifiable searches become
<kris_>
i pipe all logs to /dev/null
<kris_>
this being public is also slightly shitty because i have maybe 20 minutes to resolve any broken PRs and get it back up before people start complaining
<sad_plan>
I get that. do you have a pastebin aswell? if not, consider hosting 0x0.st thingy
<sad_plan>
as an example if anything
<kris_>
i used to host a thing my friend wrote called bobashare but i got worried about people uploading illegal content of some sort
<kris_>
protections against that don't apply to an individual like they do a company
<kris_>
bobashare being a file upload and paste server
