Nerd wanted!

@tino it sounds like a good way to go but i am tied up atm - make sure to vet your provider properly, this is a good place to seek out that assistance

[jabsonik@ihan.outo.la]

@tino @aral Boosted, but also: have you considered @ubernauten ?

[aquarius@piaille.fr]

@tino Here in France we have a growing network of small companies or not for profit groups providing that kind of services with a focus on affordability and privacy (your data is not for sale). The network itself is called CHATONS (an acronym that translates as "kittens"). You can look them up at www.chatons.org and find the ones providing the services you need.

It's an offshoot of a larger free software advocacy group called Framasoft.

@tino I don't know about their furryness and they are UK based rather than EU, but @beasts might fit the bill. They have web and email hosting accounts that fit your storage requirements for not a lot of cash. Around £5.00 a month for 15GB storage and 250GB bandwidth. Plus they have a responsive presence right here on the Fediverse.

I'm not affiliated with them other than the fact that I use their services and have been very happy with them.

@princess_uncles @beasts Great, I'll add them to my list of options!

[madmonkey@mastodon.uno]

@tino heard good voices about @beasts

[beasts@social.mythic-beasts.com]

@Madmonkey @tino thank you! I think we'd be a great fit on all counts if you can cope with UK rather than EU. We don't do renewal-time price hikes. In fact, our standard hosting account has remained at exactly the same price for 26 years. For both new and existing customers, obvs.

@tino @oliof cc @homelab FYI

[oliof@social.treehouse.systems]

@jwildeboer @tino @homelab maybe 1984.is -- don't know whether they do email though.

[bjoern@social.sengotta.net]

@jwildeboer isnt running a Mailserver on dial up IP's kinda problematic? @tino @oliof @homelab

[oliof@social.treehouse.systems]

@bjoern

Unless I missed parts of the conversation, ... nobody said anything about self hosting on residential IP space?

@jwildeboer @tino @homelab

[preya@mastodon.social]

@tino As others mentioned: @ubernauten is your best option

[oliof@social.treehouse.systems]

@jwildeboer

FYI homelab is a weird group that requires people to follow them for interaction. Please stop putting them into public conversations where they auto spam people that are replying with their demands.

PS: I did the easier for me thing and blocked them.

[bordfunk@norden.social]

@tino See @ubernauten

[tino@mountains.social]

@beasts @Madmonkey ️

[bordfunk@norden.social]

@oliof @jwildeboer @tino @homelab 1984.is is cool but they still lack IPv6 support which is a shame...

[tim@social.techn1k.de]

@tino Maybe you can find something suitable at @netcup

[tino@mountains.social]

@tim @netcup Thanks, will have a look!

[too_little_caffeine@dotnet.social]

@tino If you don't need mail tied to your host, purelymail.com has great pricing.

[tino@mountains.social]

@too_little_caffeine Not necessarily. Might be easier to have a single solution, and often package deals save money, but keeping things separate does have its advantages as well. Thanks for the tip!

Also, I lived in Cork for five years, if you have the chance I'd highly recommend living your expat dreams
