Firstly, I wanted to apologize for the silence over the past couple weeks. Work, life took over administering this instance.
Onto the good stuff.
As some of you may have noticed we skipped 0.18.0
because of some unforeseen issues but we’re now on 0.18.1
. In my extremely minimal testing, the upgrade seems to have gone through largely smoothly! Please do let me know if you see any weirdness. (Some old themes might be borked, please update your own interface accordingly).
I am aware that Jerboa was completely broken, hopefully it works now (I can’t test it since I don’t have access to Android).
Time for some stats:
$ df -h

Another important thing I did was upgrade the instance to a mid-tier vultr plan (we did run out of disk space on the old one). Here’s the new plan:
AMD High Performance 2 vCPU, 4096 MB RAM, 100 GB NVMe, 5.00 TB Transfer
And last month’s vultr stats:
This brings our yearly costs to (there’s occasional bumps because of some vultr snapshot nonsense) regardless:
domain: $12/year
vultr: $24 (instance) + $4.8 (backups) = $28.8/month = $345.60 / year
email: still free tier on zoho, woo!
total: $357 / year
Let me know questions/concerns, bugs you’ve noticed after the upgrade.
Cheers!
Ohh, interesting to see the actual costs.
Just wondering if it wouldn’t have been better to deploy block storage instead of upgrading the tier since you mentioned only disk was running out. Mine is also in vultr and I have 40GB for $1 instead of $6 for just 25GB in my next tier.
