Looking for advice: which VPS would you recommend for resting a small application? (sqlite+caddy/nginx+php)?

Looking for something cheap, with low resources. I am not piky on the OS, but prefer something lightweight ( #alpine #bsd).

I saw https://deluxhost.net but was not able to grab their cheap offers: looks like they're new, but couldn't find any review.

What would you suggest?

Pencil pines (Athrotaxis cupressoides) are endemic to Tasmania. Individual trees are known to live to 1200 years of age, but many stands like this can also be genetically identical, meaning it could be considered as just one tree, lasting over thousands of years!

TIL that software (especially #scripting runtimes like #Python, #Perl, and #NodeJS) running in #Alpine#Linux containers is often slower than in other distros like #Ubuntu. This is despite Alpine being faster on startup and often vastly more efficient with CPU, memory, and storage.

It mostly comes down to Alpine’s use of musl libc rather than #GNU’s glibc. musl is optimized for minimalism, not raw performance. Also, the Alpine packages are often not compiled with as many optimizations.

Just next to our core OS like #FreeBSD, #OpenBSD, #NetBSD, #MidnightBSD and #DragonflyBSD (and #illumos). This should also make the step easier to compare and test different scenarios where BSD provides a different behavior compared to Linux systems.

Thanks to @gyptazy for the implementation!

Anybody using the #Alpine email client? I am trying to use for mail lists but I cannot seem to make the thread mode work. Now all mails are sorted by date or alphabetically, not option to get a threaded look.

Is there any great book on #AlpineLinux ? I love the concept, and love the considerations of the operating system. Yet, I usually opt for #Debian since I am much more familiar with it. It would be great to change that in the mid-term.
