This week's post marks 4 months of weekly posts!

Speaking of this blog. I have been wanting to move to a cheaper and more environmentally friendly web host for a while now. I had been with Vultr for a while, and having a datacenter in Sydney was super nice when it came to SSH latency and deploy speeds, but the cost wasn't really justifiable — especially when other hosts offer better server configs for a fraction of the price. So, this weekend, I moved everything over to Hetzner. I had a bunch of rsync commands from the last time I moved server, so it only took a couple of hours. Most of which was moving all of the stuff in my Mastodon instance, and remembering how to install PHP again for my RSS setup.
