I think that the VPS and dedicated hosting plans on #Privex currently look expensive !INDEED. 🤔🤯
Anyway, I mentioned #Privex to @tydynrain on a comment half an hour ago, where I said that many people on Hive hosting their Hive Witness nodes there or on mainstream hosting providers is generally discouraged. 🤯🤓😅

That is indeed an issue... way too many people are using Privex, which means that when Privex is under attack, half of Hive is down. Which is why I spread my servers around, geographically where possible, and over different providers, to keep things as decentralized as possible. I also don't use VPS, but bare metal, with full access to everything, except physically touching the hardware (although that is almost virtually possible...).

Maybe you would like to rent out your bare metal servers to people by splitting them into multiple VPS. 🤔🤯 That way, you could recoup some (or even all) of the costs of renting those servers, while being able to help other people rent servers (especially those here on Hive) with lower costs (and some of your assistance). 🤗🧘♂️😎
