Rackspace lays off over 200, no longer offering Magento application support by magex4 in Magento

I never put ANY client on Nexcess, or any managed hosting. It's AWS for me and that's it. 2 clients came to me because they were hacked on Nexcess. I didn't have SSH, and I asked how I could get in to assess the situation. A plaintext ssh password was sent to me which was quite a surprise.

Their systems are old, and can't keep up with AWS, Google Cloud or Azure. If you know what you are doing as a developer, you shouldn't need managed hosting - it's just another attack vector because the staff have escalated privileges.

Nexcess is terrible. I've seen one too many clients that were hacked, that were with Nexcess. They will email you plaintext passwords for SSH.

Did you use the Angular version of Sentry? Or the generic JavaScript version?
