I signed up for a Hetzner account because they've got cheap web hosting, claim to use renewable energy, and seem to have a pretty good standing with web people.

To sign up with them you need to provide:

• Your name

• Full address

• Payment information (up front)

Then the account was flagged as high-risk, because obviously, so they also needed:

• A picture of my passport

• A selfie

• A mysterious verification process that took 5 minutes and required "human" validation

I get the need for a web-hosting company to want to screen its clientele, but that was invasive as fuck.

I've got an account now, but I'm second-guessing actually committing to using their services. I'll wait for the urine sample to clear before I make the final decision.

Goblin number three is Wegge!

This bastard hangs out around table saws and waits for people to push at just the right angle, then wedges himself in there so the wood binds and kicks back directly at you at deadly speeds.

Always ensure your wood is firmly against the fence, and that the fence is parallel to the blade, and use guards and push-sticks when possible. Wegge is always waiting!

My little personal blog is currently hosted on a little raspberry pi. The contents live on GitHub, the deploy runs automatically on push, and I use Cloudflare Tunnels to auto host it.

It's been working great, but I woke up today feeling an incredible amount of 'ick'. I don't want to spend time thinking about security, but I do want to move.

I think maybe it's time to change to a more basic setup with a remote VPS that doesn't involve any tech giants.

Anybody have recommendations for their favorite cheap hosts?
