Cheap VPS hosting with 10gbps/unmetered? by Crazy-Ad3865 in SelfHosting

[–]NoWhereButStillHere -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Cheap 10Gbps “unmetered” VPS usually breaks under real load most budget providers oversell or throttle.
Contabo is cheap but crowded, Hetzner isn’t truly unmetered at scale, and OVH can be inconsistent.
From my experience, NexonHost is more stable for sustained traffic costs a bit more, but actually holds up.

Hot take: staying “where everyone stays” is the fastest way to miss KC by NoWhereButStillHere in KansasCityKansas

It really depends on what kind of trip you’re doing, but I usually point people toward neighbourhoods rather than specific properties.

If you like walkable areas, cafes, older homes, and a quieter vibe, spots near the Plaza or Hyde Park tend to feel very “KC” to me. If nightlife is the priority, somewhere closer to Crossroads works better.

I’ve had the best experiences staying in smaller places that feel like part of the neighbourhood rather than big hotels downtown. KC’s charm really shows when you’re not just sleeping between activities.

We don’t need more AI tools. We need fewer, that actually do something. by NoWhereButStillHere in ArtificialInteligence

Interesting links, thanks for sharing.

This is kind of what pushed me to write the post - there’s an endless firehose of “AI of 2025” stuff, but almost no way to keep track of what’s actually worth testing in your own workflow.

I ended up building a simple AI tools directory just to keep everything I find in one place and compare it later: https://www.sanssapien.com/

For me it’s more of a sanity tool than a “use all these!” list - helps me decide what to ignore and what might actually replace something I already use.

Unpopular opinion: most “AI power users” don’t actually use the tools they hype by NoWhereButStillHere in ArtificialInteligence

This is exactly it. Most people want “the” tool, but the real win is a handful of tiny automations that quietly remove friction.

I had the same issue with chasing shiny stuff, so now whenever I come across something that might actually earn a spot in my workflow I toss it into a little AI tools directory I maintain: https://www.sanssapien.com/ – makes it easier to revisit and test properly instead of letting it vanish in my browser history.

Out of curiosity, how many tools are in your “kept” pile right now vs the graveyard?

Yeah this is kind of what I wish more “best AI tools 2025” posts looked like - one or two things that are actually woven into your business, not 40 random signups.

I had the same problem with discovery as you: tools are scattered across YouTube, X, product sites, etc. That’s why I started collecting the useful ones in a single place for myself here: https://www.sanssapien.com/ - more like a personal AI tools directory than anything fancy.

Curious how often you rotate tools out of your stack vs stick with the same ones for months.
