- DDR5 in 2026 – actually worth it or still a pain?by /u/Chance_Amphibian_477 on March 5, 2026 at 12:58 pm
I’m planning to upgrade my current setup later this year (still on DDR4 with a mid-range CPU from a few years ago), and I can’t decide if jumping to DDR5 actually makes sense right now. On paper it feels like the obvious move. Higher speeds, newer platform, more “future-proof”. But when I look at prices and availability, it still feels a bit chaotic. DDR4 is slowly disappearing, DDR5 kits aren’t always priced consistently, and motherboard costs add up too. I mostly use my PC for gaming and some light productivity stuff, nothing extreme. I’m just trying to figure out if I’d actually notice the difference in real life, or if this is one of those upgrades that looks great in benchmarks but doesn’t change much day to day. For those of you who upgraded recently – did going DDR5 feel worth it? Or would you have saved the money and stayed on DDR4 a bit longer? Genuinely curious how people are approaching this in 2026. submitted by /u/Chance_Amphibian_477 [link] [comments]
- Cheap hosting that doesn’t suck?by /u/Beginning_Fig_6434 on March 5, 2026 at 12:43 pm
Launching a small project soon and trying to keep costs down, but I also don’t want to migrate in 6 months because the performance is awful. And every review site looks like an affiliate farm, so I’d rather hear real experiences from actual users. What budget hosting providers have you personally used that were: Consistently fast Not full of surprise fees Decent support Stable, no random crashes Bonus if you’ve actually scaled a site on it. Trying to avoid making a bad choice early, so I appreciate any honest feedback. submitted by /u/Beginning_Fig_6434 [link] [comments]
- want to switch my Ghost blog management system from aws to other alternativesby /u/ildbesuchagentlemen on March 5, 2026 at 10:46 am
I currently use Ghost as the blog management system, and it is hosted on AWS. However, since the blog receives relatively low traffic, I’m looking to move it to a platform that can reduce infrastructure costs. The blog is only a small part of the main website, so I’d prefer not to spend much on hosting or infrastructure. My background is mostly in backend Python and ML products, which I’ve usually deployed on platforms like Hugging Face Spaces, so I have limited experience with traditional web hosting. I’ve done a bit of research and came across options like Cloudflare and DigitalOcean as potential alternatives. submitted by /u/ildbesuchagentlemen [link] [comments]

- My Minecraft server suddenly stopped working (Ngrok related)by /u/What_if_its_Lupus on March 5, 2026 at 5:13 am
I need some help, I started a Minecraft server hosted from my PC and it suddenly stopped working and I have no idea why. for some background I and my friends are using the ATlauncher and the mod pack ++Vanilla I also use Ngrok to port forward, I will be cross posting everything also my one friend and I were able to load into the server just fine and play for about 2 ish hours. we wanted to get another friend to join and he couldn’t. At some point my first friend left the server and then couldn’t get back on. I could still join through “local host” but not through the ip given to me through Ngrok. Ive restarted the server, my PC and the launcher several times and so have they. I don’t know what could be causing this especially because my friend joined earlier and now it won’t let him, has anyone else had problems like this? how did they get solved? submitted by /u/What_if_its_Lupus [link] [comments]
