when i got one for a one-off $5 payment

its shit, but good enough for hosting my crap

>>54942381
>Why did you fall for the rented server meme?
I don't rent shit, since my alumni account at the university leaves me with free hosting for the rest of my life.

>>54942381
maybe it's because port 80 is blocked?!

Time to switch to something better, anon-kun

I used to have an old laptop in my father's basement that I used as a webserver. One day lightning struck and the network card in it got fucked.

Tell me, OP, does lightning strike the rented servers?

Only people knee deep in the botnet would pay to let someone else's computer do a job your own computer can do yourself.

Electricity isn't free and so is hardware.
Most of the time renting is more cost and time efficient, plus you have access to an high speed connection which isn't always possible at your home.

>>54945070
Don't know what you are taking, but selfhosting is cheaper (always). I pay like 10€ for my electricity for the whole year for the server (which is just a little rpi v3 and does the job really well. What are you, a faggot waiting for 1000 users every second?! dream on)

My internet isn't fast enough, I wouldn't host even my small app on anything less than 20 mbps

>>54946840
Abuse third parties.

My ISP doesnt block me hosting shit but on a residential connection the upload bandwith is too small to reliably host anything with even moderate traffic.

Fucking kikes man, why do I have to pay just so that I can host my little static HTML website?

because they offer better uptime and connection speeds than I can
and it costs $30/year compared to $50+/year just in electricity

>>54942582
literally what is preventing me from suing my city for not requiring 2 comprabable services in the same locations

>>54951765
$50 a year is a good price especially considering anything pulling that kind of power should be virtualizing many different machines

>>54951765
>putting 4 graphics cards in your server computer

>>54951798
but I have nothing to use all that power
and ISP's block email services unless you pay for a business connection

I could spin up a digital ocean server with a public IP that I have full access to for like $5 a month. You're trying to hard man.

I get root and has crazy good uptime. I can SSH I can anything.

Obviously if you host illegal shit you'll eventually get caught and probably quicker renting.

>>54942381
My friend and i used to torrent from his house, but after his dumbass sister got two strikes, we decided it was a good idea to move our torrent server to a hosted place.

Its fuckin fast now too.

I'm not hosting my personal website on the same connection that I serve loli and cp from.

Actually, I'm pretty sure renting a server is cheaper than what I'd pay in electricity costs to run the thing in my basement.

I'm paying $20 a month for a cheap dedicated server, just to dick around with and host some shit. Just did the math, and running something similar in my basement would be $200 + $30 per month minimum, if I don't go all out with hard drives and RAM.

It's pretty fun just to have a server somewhere for playing with new technologies and shit.

You probably have to find something more focused on storage. Most servers seem to scale hardware with storage, so it might not fit your use case.
