We joined the Scaleway Startup Program on this day, this will allow us to further improve our platform with some new features we already had planned for a long time related to infrastructure auto scalling.
On this day we reached 489.163 registered users on our platform.
This was a great milestone to keep me motivated to continue the project and to continue on the big update we are currently working on, a complete platform re-write: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4WV4-b8RMxE
On this day we reached 222.500 registered users on our platform.
This was a great milestone to keep me motivated to continue the project and to continue developing new features for the control panel to continue making this service even better.
Thank you all our first 222.500 users :)

In Portugal (and a lot of other continental European countries) they use "." in place of "," in numbers. So it would be "222,500" from a UK perspective.

Congrats to these numbers! I am wondering though, how can you run 122k servers with 100$/month? Seems like I am overpaying for my IT infrastructure 🤣

Hey :)
100$ is linked from Stripe, there is also the advertisement/adsense.
Also this is are overall numbers (sum), not 122k servers running at the same time :)

We have just updated our logo on all our systems and on all the social media channels we are present on, time to ditch the old logo that had elements nothing to do with the project.

Server Migration/Location Change
You will now be able to migrate your server to another location, you might want to migrate your server in order to improve your ping/latency based on your player-base or if you didn't select the best location on server creation by mistake or due to resources constraints at the time.
On this day we enabled this feature for all our user base
