⚠️ maintenance ⚠️
Hetzner has introduced new server plans (a bit newer, but a bit cheaper as well).
Will rescale the servers for mountains.social and mountains.photos at 12:30 CEST to benefit from this. This will cause a downtime for a couple of minutes.
@bergmeister very useful, I was thinking of doing this. I'm surprised Hetzner are basically going to reduce my bills with these changes but I remain a faithful customer of this type of company. They even gave me a heads up to change! #sustainable #tech #ftw
@snookerarmchair I think their incentive is to 1) keep competitive and 2) push customers of legacy configs, so they have less configs to support. It is nice of them to inform you, I noticed by chance.
✅ maintenance ✅
And we're back. The servers on plan CX22 have been migrated to CX23 and the CX32 to CX33.
This will save us some (2.87 EUR, 14% on server costs), while keeping the same resources.
Looping in #MastoAdmin, #FediAdmin, #PixelAdmin, as lots of Fediverse instances run on Hetzner and might also want to benefit.
@bergmeister can you migrate to a newer VPS without moving all data / reinstalling etc.?
ℹ️ documentation ℹ️
For the ones interested, updated also the documentation reflecting the new server types.
