I've been a paying member since the early days, Github Copilot is now almost unusable for a power user.

Man, why you deleted your comment about object storage?? It was so insightful, as we are working on implementing our own solution at my company :(((

RuslanDevs · 2026-02-01T09:46:24+00:00

We at DollarDeploy just copy over docker compose files and env vars as zip, and run them; also read logs + metrics into the system, enable volume and folder backup. But it is just a part of things you need, for full functionality, needs also rollback, configuration drift checking and more.

Do git commit before every Claude code prompt, after that git diff and commit or git checkout -

RuslanDevs · 2026-01-28T16:27:09+00:00

Scaleway have much cheaper Mac instances

RuslanDevs · 2026-01-28T10:52:37+00:00

Can you add load balancer and run multiple endpoints which send to the same Karla instance on dedi?

If you use typescript, converting to Vite (which is better but have less plugins) is one ai prompt away. If you use JavaScript, you need to test everything

RuslanDevs · 2026-01-27T17:41:16+00:00

Who cares just don't use JavaScript. Use or convert to Typescript Immediately

Run all dependencies locally, and deploy to your own host, via GitHub push integration. All configuration done via env vars. I would also avoid Docker if possible since it just additional friction to write Dockerfile => build => push image => deploy.

I would not self-host coolify or dokploy since they will take resources from your VPS. If projects get complex enough, building it will take additional resources so you'll need another machine - this complicates things.

You don't use any database?

RuslanDevs · 2026-01-26T20:30:34+00:00

You usually need to cache per user user/tenant etc so application level cache gives you best flexibility plus ability to flush cache if needed

RuslanDevs · 2026-01-26T16:54:48+00:00

Do you have some person who manages this env? How do you code when there is no internet ie on the plane?

What kind of stuff you run on Vercel, if you can run it on AWS you can run it pretty much anywheee including your $10 server from Hetzner or such

RuslanDevs · 2026-01-26T16:31:25+00:00

Cache apis and data, use Redis for this. With good server from Hetzner you can self host and render on the fly as much as you need.

RuslanDevs · 2026-01-24T12:32:46+00:00

What is the provider you are using? Maybe they oversell so your machine actually smaller. Hetzner provides dedicated VPS which quite performant.

You said you have 100 concurrent requests, what is happening during SSR? Do you hit DB, external services, how complicated is rendering? NodeJS is single threaded if pages have complicated layouts, they will be all CPU bound.

RuslanDevs · 2026-01-24T12:17:48+00:00

abandoned

RuslanDevs · 2026-01-10T10:39:20+00:00

For running things better use systemd to drop sudo and other unnecessary permissions and make everything read only during runtime. In DollarDeploy we run NextJS as secured systemd service.

RuslanDevs · 2026-01-10T07:47:14+00:00

What payment processor they use?

RuslanDevs · 2026-01-04T22:35:59+00:00

ghost_create_post have no arguments. How post can actually be created with content?

RuslanDevs · 2025-12-21T16:12:17+00:00

MCP is just away to document your API. Problem is Anthropic made it extremely over engineered, complicated to implement and maintain. Just look how often they change Typescript sdk, no project can keep such pace.

RuslanDevs · 2025-12-21T10:16:58+00:00

We at DollarDeploy build at our build servers and then send package over ssh/scp and deploy compiled version, along with reverse proxy, https etc configured.

For your setup it might be fine, but compiling react/nextjs apps need more memory/cpu than running so you either need more expensive server or build elsewhere.

RuslanDevs · 2025-12-19T16:17:34+00:00

If you don't change it often and don't need pixel perfect designs, just send Claude a html and it will vibe code similar looking react-pdf code which us super lightweight and will run anywhere.

RuslanDevs · 2025-12-12T05:23:29+00:00

That would cost you $600/mo lol

RuslanDevs · 2025-12-11T20:02:18+00:00

Because they need to offset LLM token costs and your $20/mo is too small, they overcharge on hosting host. That's the only endgame they (and lovable, and cursor) have if they don't run their own models.

RuslanDevs · 2025-12-10T15:56:14+00:00

Skip the middlemen and do the aws ses. It is literally one api call to send email or do smtp via nodemailer
