It's kind of ironic that they list FreeBSD's excellent documentation as one of the reasons for consideration, especially considering that their own documentation is so bad!

I mean, what kind of company links directly to blog entries, with incomplete and outdated information, all across their web-site?

Ain't nobody got time to read the blog comments and figure out what's the current status of stuff is.

And the above post is downvoted to -2 for which precise reasons?!

Does anyone really disagree that documentation at DO is total crap?!

If it wasn't total crap, why would their employees link (on social media) to the upstream www.freebsd.org instead of any kind of FAQ on their own website? https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=8890383 Oh, right, because DigitalOcean's documentation (about their own features (and disabling of features from FreeBSD)) is absent and non-existent!
