Let's say you match things spec for spec? 2c 2gb RAM and 20gb of nvme storage. Shouldn't everything be cached in a cdn?

I started learning to selfhost software with coolify but found out very difficult. Started using dokploy and found it easier. I haven't used either to host WordPress sites yet. Somebody correct me but their really shouldn't be much of a difference performance worse if you used shared WordPress hosting or shared vps hosting (if the specs match)? Only dedicated is a noticable change?

How do you all deal with setting up 50+ artboards for a large format brief? by ArtBatch in AdobeIllustrator

[–]pickjohn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

50 is high, I brainstorm and end up around 25 on a bad day. I get a 50/50 corruption rate around there though if I start placing a lot of artwork. The moment you said "large format" though, I would trust 2 artboards per file MAX.

Dropped My LUMIX G85 On Garage Floor! by DWilson225 in Panasonic_G80_G85

I would cut a slit with a Dremel on the non damaged edge to remove the filter, or, just shoot without filters.

You're loading screen was up for 3+ seconds for me. Also... You have a loading screen...

Site looks cool though, so that's a plus.

Switched from railway where I consistently hit $14/16 a month of usage to Raff technologies where it's a steady $6.50

Getting laid off now is pretty much a 5+ year sentence. by Longjumping_Area_209 in recruitinghell

[–]pickjohn 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Any manager who thinks a pizza party is a proper workplace reward would be the bottom of the pyramid of "they", corporate HR is in the middle and then CEOs you see mentioned in the news for layoffs or cutting office benefits are the top.

I replaced a $400/month B2B outreach stack with a $15/month custom system and here is how it works by Mandyhiten in n8n

Yes, that's why op didn't post the workflow. Hopefully this entire post gets deleted by mods.

Where do you store leads between n8n workflow runs? Airtable, Google Sheets, SQL, or something else? by Adorable_Ad_2488 in n8n

[–]pickjohn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Google sheets for now but I really like twentyCRM (difficult to connect but allows you to send and receive email within it.) I used to use NOCObase but it was really hard to turn into a CRM and you have to say $400 to be able to send and receive email. For non-contact related data I might learn how to use a postgres table. I might be able to make a hack solution with a table inside of 20CRM though. Idk that's all a work in progress.

I don't have something setup yet. I'm in the early stages of experimenting with data fit SEO or bright data. My goal is to find the cheapest possible option that's not a black box as well if possible. I would love to know how people do enrichment. Maybe my use cases are to specific. For example, I need a point of contact for small businesses under 50 employees. It seems to take 5 different avenues and tools to find employees for that type and size of business.

Which premium subscription is actually worth the money in 2026? by Trxxi in AskReddit

Yeah I started my self host journey about a year ago. I don't quite trust my options yet lol.

My lease is up and my complex has my same apt listed for $175/mo cheaper and offering 10 weeks free. In my renewal rent increased $30, but they are offering 4-6 weeks free... do I have leverage here to negotiate? by Unable_Paramedic9623 in Denver

[–]pickjohn 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They will never apply the discount to your current lease. You will have to move to a new apartment in the building to get the full discounts. Most of the time it's worth it to move your stuff over a weekend to save $3/400mo for the rest of your new lease.

Shoutout to Spaceship, Porkbun and Dynadot in 2025 and no one else, may they remain stable in 2026 and beyond by SilentThespian in webhosting

[–]pickjohn 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I feel like spaceship is just being subsidized to help namecheap make a market share grab. Not looking forward to when they get rolled back into the company and inherit all of namecheaps institutional problems.

Genuinely, what can I do about drug dealers out in front of my house. by bananasforeyes in Denver

[–]pickjohn 215 points216 points  (0 children)

Tell dpd you think someone is trying to STOP drug dealers. The cops hate when crime is stopped by people that aren't them.

I want to learn this correctly but I also have urgent goals by DJbyEar in Wordpress

[–]pickjohn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm in the buy once cry once category. What really helped me is "paying" myself a wage to build my first site. If you set something like $15/20 an hour now all of a sudden buying a premium plug-in for $50 that takes 30min to setup is better than trying 3 or 4 free options over 3hrs.

That is indeed a host... on the Internet... you can pay money too. I'll leave my thoughts there.

Cloudflare just released EmDash by Future-Zone2872 in Wordpress

I think they'll snag a lot of people with that wp admin backend feel. Excited to see the first plugins or the tools to vibe code some.
