- Bought a VPS for one WordPress site and now I feel like I’m wasting it, what do you all actually run on yours?by /u/Nearly-God on August 31, 2026 at 8:46 am
Set up my first VPS last month after my shared hosting kept breaking due to traffic spikes, so now I’ve got a site runnin, business email connected and a domain that finally updates on time, that’s it tho. The VPS specs I’m paying for could prolly run like 5 more things at once, still I’m just letting most of it sit there doin nothing. Rn I’m on Hostinger VPS, I switched from Bluehost a while back and I see ppl mention n8n workflows, AI agents and a private git server all running on boxes no bigger than mine… it feels like I just bought a small server and I’m using it as a shared host, what’s actually worth spinning up on a spare VPS that isn’t just “another WordPress “? submitted by /u/Nearly-God [link] [comments]

- Hostinger- Multiple domains with 1 Hostingby /u/Hunny9901 on August 30, 2026 at 3:26 pm
Hello everyone. Hope you’re all doing well. As the title suggests, I just bought hostinger unlimited plan ( 50GB NVMe storage ) for 2 different domains I completely understand that I can host multiple websites on it without any issue. However, my main concern is emails. I would be sending 10-20 emails per day to approach B2B businesses and I’ve seen many scenarios like blocking or domain reputation issues So my main concern is what if one domain or email gets black listed, will the other domain or its email will also face the same issue? Also, what if I use never bounce or other tools to verify bounce rate, can I still use same hosting for 2 domains Kindly let me know your experience with that submitted by /u/Hunny9901 [link] [comments]
- Godlike.host misleading advertising/promises.by /u/OHBABYATRIPLEUWU on August 30, 2026 at 1:02 pm
As the title says, I used godlike host in order to get a 16 gb server for 3 months for me and my friends to play a minecraft modpack named prominence 2. Either way, when checking out, i was given the option to get one month [for an AMD EPYC] or three months for an AMD Ryzen 9950 x3D[10 virtual cores] which I was quite extactic about. Now here lies the problem, instead of getting the CPU I was promised, I was given 10 virtual cores from an AMD EPYC 9474F which is drastically worse for minecraft servers especially modded. When questioned about this, I was told that the 9950X3D probably didn’t get chosen because of the location I chose, which is clearly not true considering I was told otherwise after. They even tried to downplay me further by saying, oh here 7950X3D in finland instead, and I had to keep presurring them to tell me where the hell the CPU model I wanted and was promised at was. At the end, they admit that I was in fact hosted in the netherlands, and for some reason I was given the “1 month plan” CPU instead of the “3 month plan” CPU but we all know it was probably intentional. Props to them for processing my refund, however, I will not be using a service I cannot trust/have to dig in to see what I was given to ensure that’s the correct thing I ordered. Not to mention that this is illegal in Europe. The way they are doing it especially. I have now swapped to bloom.host instead due to transparecy issues. submitted by /u/OHBABYATRIPLEUWU [link] [comments]
