- How is the market? A small start-up is asking 🙂
by /u/ChiefBirdTech on October 10, 2026 at 9:33 pmHello! I am from a UK startup and I am looking to start hosting services. I am starting off with something small and close to home, Minecraft servers, but I do intend to do web hosting, other games, and maybe host SaaS, but I thought I could just ask it out here before I start off, how is the market for these. Anything which are just good things to know about? I jumped around some Discord channels and learned lots of interesting things and how to get customers, but if anyone here has any advice, I would love it! Thank you! submitted by /u/ChiefBirdTech [link] [comments]

- Anyone had any luck with 1984 Hosting’s abuse reports?by /u/Alsweider on October 10, 2026 at 4:27 am
I reported a site that looked like a scam shop advertising regulated chemicals. Its blog also featured promotional images of bottles labelled “KO-Tropfen” (date-rape drugs). I provided the IP address and details of the site’s content and hosting history. A previous host took the shop down within a day of my report, but it later reappeared with 1984 hosting. I submitted an initial report in September and followed up twice. More than 20 days after the first report, I still haven’t received so much as an acknowledgement. I get that providers need time to investigate reports, and I’m not expecting an immediate takedown. I did notice that 1984’s own terms seem to restrict this kind of content, though, so I thought it was worth reporting. Is it normal not to hear anything at all, or is there a usual way to follow up on an abuse report? Has anyone dealt with something similar? submitted by /u/Alsweider [link] [comments]
- what would a digital archaeologist find on your oldest server?by /u/pigeon_bay on October 9, 2026 at 4:26 pm
imagine someone getting access to one of your old servers 15 years from now and trying to figure out why everything is configured the way it is. they’d find forgotten subdomains, weird naming conventions, old scripts, abandoned databases, maybe a config comment that says “DO NOT TOUCH” with absolutely no explanation which part of your current setup would be the hardest for another admin to understand without asking you first? submitted by /u/pigeon_bay [link] [comments]
