- What’s the biggest lie the web hosting industry keeps telling customers?
by /u/hostkcom on July 26, 2026 at 4:04 pmEvery hosting company claims to have: Blazing-fast servers 99.99% uptime 24/7 expert support Unlimited everything But after using different providers over the years, I’ve realized most customers don’t leave because of price. They leave because something they were promised simply wasn’t true. So I’m curious… What’s the biggest disappointment you’ve had with a hosting provider? Was it support? Performance? Hidden renewal pricing? Downtime? Or something else? I’m asking because we’re currently improving our own hosting platform, HostK, and I’d rather build around real customer frustrations than another marketing checklist. I’d love to hear your honest experiences. submitted by /u/hostkcom [link] [comments]

I can take it, I promise! Dish it out as hard as you can give it! 😉 I personally got sick of all the control panels out there not doing what I wanted… so… I built one. https://podnest.us https://github.com/kpirnie/podnest My intentions with it are: 1. Completely containerized web hosting 2. Security 3. Isolated performance I think I hit those goals, but I could really usa a good roasting to make it better! submitted by /u/kevinpirnie [link] [comments]
