These random unannounced outages are what I had heard multiple times before. While I'm under to illusion my lemmy instance is something special, I do aim for 100% uptime. Shit happens, things go down, but it appears Contabo has grown a reputation for it :( I may try hetzner at some point.
you get what you pay for. but there's no 100% uptime. and five 9s are really expensive to setup. You can work around contabo's iinstability by smart clustering, but I don't know if lemmy supports that very well. You might need some expertise with k8s etc.
Oh, don't get me wrong - I'm under to illusion of having 100% uptime, I'm simply aiming for it :D The idea of cloud is so that hardware redundancy problems are handled by them - that's the selling point. Otherwise I can achieve random outages quite well on my own hosting stuff at home :D
I do understand what you mean, though - you get what you pay for.
