Comment on If websites are slow for you, this is why, AWS is breaking everything
DaTingGoBrrr@lemmy.world 2 days agoSure, you could say that since you put the service on the VPS. But you don’t own the server and host it on your own hardware. Which is what the person you replied to was talking about. Why would you even point out that hosting on service requires special knowledge if you find hosting in a VPS and at home equal?

Not “could”. It is.
When you say “hosting in a cloud”, I think you mean creating an account on a hosted service. Or using something like PikaPods or Fedihost or other managed hosting service.

When the majority of people talk about self-hosting they specifically talk about hosting a service on your own hardware. Not a rent on someone else’s computer…

Literally no one thinks that except you. Your own sources state as much.

Lmao are you okey? Is your brain working? Keep getting scammed by cloud hosting if you want to. I will keep using my home server and spread the word about how easy it is to host a home server and how much of a scam a VPS is.
