Is the 1€/month price permanent or a limited time deal where it will go up later? Because I didn’t see that kind of pricing on their site which wouldn’t go up to 12€/month after a year.
Comment on Free hosting options for Pangolin in the EU?

I’m not using Pangolin, but a 1€/month VPS from IONOS serves as my nebula lighthouse.

No, it’s permanent. They call it “VPS XS”, here (in german ). Sadly a initial one-time payment of 10€ required, I forgot about that.
On ionos.com the same VPS costs $2/month. No one-time payment though.
The unique selling point of this VPS for me was the low price combined with unlimited bandwith. Sometimes my nebula lighthouse needs to proxy traffic for peers that can’t talk to each other directly. It’s nice not to worry about bandwidth then.

That’s interesting, I’ll have to look into that again, they seem to have a server location option that is EU which looks nice, I’ll just need to find out which countries that actually refers to.

How do you handle certificate renewals?
doeknius_gloek@discuss.tchncs.de 1 month ago
Ha, that’s a good question: I don’t. I chose a rather long time for the certs validity and then promised to myself that I will extend my ansible playbook when I need to.
