In Bookwyrm there are way too many duplicate authors and books, and a way to merge them is unclear.

Open Library seems to offer a more unified and consistent database.

Hey everyone,

I’ve been using Linode for a long time and have always been happy with their service. The performance is solid, and their tech support has been great whenever I’ve needed help. However, I’ve started to feel the pinch with their pricing—it’s definitely on the expensive side.

Recently, I decided to try out Hostinger’s VPS offering to spin up a Bluesky PDS and see how it compares. So far, I’ve had a good experience with their tech support as well, but I’m curious about the bigger picture.

Has anyone here used both Linode and Hostinger VPS? If so, how do they compare in terms of:

• Performance (CPU, RAM, disk speed, etc.)
• Uptime and reliability
• Ease of use (control panel, setup, etc.)
• Value for money

I’m especially curious about how Hostinger manages to charge so much less than Linode. Is there a catch, or is it just a different business model? If you’ve used both, do you think Hostinger is a better option overall, or is Linode worth the extra cost?

Would love to hear your thoughts and experiences!

Thanks in advance!

every once in awhile i get a bug up my butt about sharing my massive, curated library.. but every time i get distracted by the volume of steps it would take to create the necessary shit to seed and then find a place that would even take those seeds to index.

ami doin it wrong? why is it so hard? napster was easy.
