How do you host stuff?

Hey chvid!

For my setup, I went with a $5 VPS on Hetzner, which has been really affordable and works well for my needs.

I set up a k3d cluster on the VPS and created a few simple Kubernetes manifests to deploy my services. Here's how I keep it straightforward:

I use scripts to build and push my Docker images to GitHub Container Registry.
Then, I just restart my services to pull the latest images. No fancy CI/CD setup for now since it's a small project that I’m working on solo.

If I were starting from scratch again, I'd probably look into Coolify. It's a self-hosted alternative to platforms like Heroku/Netlify/Vercel and offers nice automation features. Seems like a great option if you're looking for something more plug-and-play but still want control over your infrastructure.

Hope that helps!

Say something nice to chvid…
