Thinking about moving off Vercel? 🚀

I wrote a deep-dive guide on the best hosting alternatives for web devs in 2025 — costs, trade-offs, and my real migration lessons.

"Amazon are playing New Zealand for fools" - Catalyst IT's Don Christie

RNZ's Kathryn Ryan ran a segment today on Morning Report on AWS's supposed investment in NZ, inviting both Amazon and Catalyst - and Amazon were a no show. That's #chickenshit on the part of #aws

Amazon's supposed $7B investment in NZ, like their payment of taxes in NZ, or willingness to front up to NZ media, is a mirage.

"For instance, talking about all the different products AWS offers ..."

scAmazon Web Services don't offer products. There's not a single thing they sell that customers own after paying for it. What they offer is *services* (thus the name), not products.

I notice this euphemistic language around "financial products" too. Again, *not* products. They're not even service-as-a-product-substitute (eg SaaS). They're just services. Why call them products?

AWS Deleted all data despite redundancy, backup, dead man’s switch. This is why you need to keep all your data offline. The 3-2-1 backup rule is a good data protection strategy that states that you kee 3 copies of your data, storing them on 2 different types of storage media, and keeping 1 copy offsite under your bed or office. Don't trust your hosting company's backup service.

Hey tech friends. I'm wondering about alternatives to stripe, specifically to stripe connect for split payouts. Anybody have any opinions about these European alternatives? https://european-alternatives.eu/alternative-to/stripe

I see others like these but many of them have U.S. headquarters. https://tipalti.com/resources/learn/stripe-competitors-and-alternatives/

edit/added couple more tags for visibility.

Questions for #fediverse#SysAdmin folk who run #prometheus and #grafana on multiple #aws accounts:

Do you use a single Prometheus server or do you have one for each account?

How do you handle auto scaling EC2 servers which could change IPs at any time?

Is it possible for servers to push rather than get pulled from?

Please share any setups that could be relevant and boost far & wide!

Thanks in advance!! ❤️❤️❤️

My son's workplace is in need of a short-term Linux/AWS expert of 8+ years (for bureaucratic reasons) to do a migration of an Ubuntu instance from one workspace to another, basically as soon as possible.
