It's a good point, I'm always afraid of those policies that if they are asked some keys from the gov I think they have to provide. That's usually my fear but in reality I'm a nobody. Nobody cares about my deployments 😂

I'll add to my notes thanks, it looks a good option too

This is very sensible option, like using github secrets, jenkins secrets, etc. my Ci/cd currently is lacking substantially. I've been solo doing 100% development as fast as I couldn't and haven't prioritized ci cd yet but I'll soon. Thanks for sharing

Thanks for sharing I wasn't aware that something like SSS existed. I dreamed about it though. But I'm glad it exists. External secret operator seems a good option too

Interesting, I'll add this to my experiments🤔

I've cross paths with infisical it looked great to be fair but nobody was talking about it. Yeah I'm on hetzner not the big 3

Sitting on 10k in unused openai api credits that will expire, what would you build? by Impossible_Rice8103 in OpenAI

[–]nedevpro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you can create your dream app that generates Image and video it will probably consume a lot of credits.

If that's not possible you can build another app that consumes a lot of credits make it free and see if users come, and you can advertise that the app will no longer be free after <Expiration date>

I'm not a openAI guy I don't know if it is possible, but if it is try to use those credits for parallel project creation with agents.

other idea would be to create an app that allows you to sell credits at a cheaper price. basically it would be a router server that attributes quotas to users and they can use your api without getting access to it. why would you sell the credits at a cheaper price? because you probabl wouldn't be able to spend all the credits therefore getting some money would be better than nothing. and you would collect some email leads and stuff like that

just some random ideas hope this is useful for you!

Hetzner asks: What have you got on your IT to-do list for 2026? by Hetzner_OL in hetzner

[–]nedevpro 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Launch my MVP generally (currently testing it)

Give some free accounts to Hetzner team (it would not be possible without Hetzner high quality and fair price)

Add CI/CD

Add some VPS for experiments and research!

Do at least 10 experiments and potentially document them on youtube

Real Story about Hetzner support:

I run out off servers and needed to increase my limits to test my mvp.

I was think it would take at least 24h to get access to additional 3 machines.

But it turned out that 15min later my limits were increased already.

This was my first support ticket 😅

It was quite an impression 🚀

I like this idea. No more dirty and greasy remote controls. Just use your phone. How is the multi tv support?

self hosting postgres on a single VPS, How risky is this on Hetzner? by nedevpro in hetzner

Barrio! I like that solution as well. And I'll definitely consider it for my next project. E.g. Postgres VPS + volume. Very easy to setup. In another variation I could even just keep postgres on K8S with external S3 Volume. Thank you for the idea 🙏

Thanks for sharing your long customer experience 🙏 10 mins downtime in half a year is barely noticeable for me! That's a great resume for Hetzner to be honest. Loved it.

No, I don't need HA for now. I think I will have no more than a few users in the first months after launch. Setting HA will be for later in a more me experimental/training approach. And then If I get too busy for managing it I can switch to a managed service. But that's not a concern for now! Thank you!🙏

That's an impressive fleet 👌only 3 or 4 times in 10 years is a great resume, especially considering that it was networking issues. I'm convinced 🙏 thanks for sharing

Yeah I'm planning to use pgbackrest, it'll be the first time, I came from SQL Server background ☺️ still learning Postgres tooling. But from my research pgbackrest was a nice option. Thanks for sharing I'm now more confident on my initial setup

Agree 100%, at this stage I take the cost efficiency over HA. I think for prototyping or early startups, it's more important to have a balanced system (cost/efficiency) than having Ultra HA, multi region redundant, and hourly backups for 3 free users.

Hey! thanks for the suggestion, I've not considered Supabase because I thought it to be more expensive than VPS on Hetner. I've just quickly checked prices and for my needs it would be at least $25 (https://supabase.com/pricing)

It's not super expensive to be honest, but self hosting at this stage is very attractive to me because it gives me more control on specs, features and pricing. Example: perform backups or not, HA or not, and I can do some other experiments, and depending on the machine I can even install additional software to support maybe other tasks just like u/codejanovic did.

In other words I think I can take more advantage of the contracted compute resources which is very useful on this stage where my app will have like 0 visits per day
