[Gud]

I have a VPS at Hetzner. I pay 4 euro per month. It's inside a FreeBSD jail for separation.

Keeping FreeBSD up to date is extremely simple. run pkg update && pkg upgrade. It rarely breaks. Can't remember it ever breaking.

The main reason I prefer FreeBSD over Linux distros are the far superior package managers(pkg for binaries and ports for source code).

I also host my own web server using nginx, and sometimes other stuff. All in separate jails.

Back when I was a kid, I used to have my own servers.
