Would anyone pay for like cheap hosting if it only cost you say ~$0.50 USD per month for a basic space to run your website, twtxt feed, yarn pod, whatever? 🤔 Of course we're talking slices of a server here in terms of memory and cpu, so this would be 10 milliCores of CPU + 64MB of Memory, more than enough to run quite a bit of shit™ 🤣 (_especially when you don't need to run or manage a full OS_)~

@prologic careful there, especially with that “whatever” 😂. There is no way you can run all that on a "10 milliCores of CPU + 64MB of Memory”. It will take more than that, and it will cost more than $0.50 USD per month.
what do you have in mind?

I was using 6 USD servers from Digital Ocean, but saw that on Vultr they start at 2.5 USD.
VPS are great to learn, although paying a dollar for a service with no maintenance makes sense to me by all the time we save. The problem exists when you don't use the service that much and have to pay anyway.
@eapl.me What if it were also possible to "pause" your apps and only pay a much smaller amount for say storage? When you use it again you pay something like tiny amount per hour

The entire point would be that you don't get an antire machine, but a container.

@prologic are you trying to reinvent cloud computing?!?
@abucci Sort of. But, if you look around, and I mean look really hard, no-one really officer this kind of "small slice" computing anywhere. Docker tried to do this once and failed. Containers as a Service -- CaaS.
