Would you like a VPS on these terms?
- Clueless administrator who says he has no technical background and limited technical skills.
- No graphical panel
- NAT VPS
- No onboarding
- No knowledge base
- Takes a while to setup account
- Occasional maintenance reboots
- No backups
- Owners consider your VPS ephemeral
What kind of offer is that?!?
Well, there’s a couple more bullet points:
- VMs are FREE (sometimes)
- It’s a community project run by our own @Not_Oles
What I’m referring to is MetalVPS. It’s a “pay what you think is right” service, or as they put it:
- Minimum price offers like $1.01 will be considered. Free offers will be considered too.
You can also get accounts for $1.01/ONCE.
So should you put your small business shopping cart on MetalVPS? No! But if you have hobby projects, monitoring scripts, or other non-critical issues, why not give MetalVPS a try?
Lots more to read including YABS in @Not_Oles latest thread on LowEndTalk.

I'm raindog308, techno polymath and long-time LowEndTalk community Administrator. My technical interests include all things Unix, perl, python, golang, shell scripting, vintage operating systems such as MVS, and relational database systems such as Oracle, PostgreSQL, and MySQL.
I also enjoy using LEBs! I have an empire of little guys for VPNs, larger guys for apps, and big guys for databases and storage. When I'm not in front a screen I'm into German Shepherd dogs, quality knives, target shooting, theology, tabletop roleplaying games, and forest hiking.
