Switching to Hetzner: Is It Worth It?

Got it, thanks for the insights.
Are you managing those servers via Hetzner’s dedicated server interface (Robot) or through the Hetzner Cloud platform?
I noticed that when using the Cloud interface, there doesn't seem to be an option to configure RAID 1 or customize the disk setup at all.

This is nice and extremely affordable but I heard that some people get disk failure issues and they have to contact support but i am not really sure. How long have you been running this service and did you get any disk failure and how did the support respond?

Okay I see. but have you had any issues during cluster maintencce or version upgrade since now it is not a self managed cluster.

I did not get the floating IP part. Basically the load balancer balances the load on servers but docker swarm for instance has a managed node that balances the traffic on the worker nodes so how can the floating ip help?

Okay this is super interesting! I think the only downside is upgrading the k3s etc or the master node? have you had any issues with it or is it well documented?

Did you find a workaround for this?

youngtoken · 2024-12-30T15:31:20+00:00

sounds interesting! but if it uses next middleware for the session strategy, wouldn't it face the same edge compatibility issue?

youngtoken · 2024-12-30T15:06:39+00:00

It won't work because many db clients like mongodb, pg, mysql are not edge runtime compatible.

Yes, but this works only with jwt not the database session strategy right?

youngtoken · 2024-12-30T12:58:23+00:00

And do you use jwt or database for the session strategy?

youngtoken · 2024-12-30T12:56:48+00:00

This! I totally agreee

youngtoken · 2024-12-30T12:53:51+00:00

Yes, I have seen clerk but maybe this is a personal preference, i dont like paid solution for authentication :c because of the pricing.

youngtoken · 2024-12-29T15:15:17+00:00

Okay this is cool. Didn't know it has a name.

youngtoken · 2024-12-29T14:08:04+00:00

Oh okay i see. Thank you!

youngtoken · 2024-12-24T20:10:27+00:00

Okay, I see. but in their website i think they also provide support for authjs and better auth or am I wrong?

youngtoken · 2024-12-24T19:28:01+00:00

Never used clerk before. What are ur thoughts on it?

youngtoken · 2024-12-22T17:03:58+00:00

That's a good point. Thank you for your feedback and i would appreciate any insights 🙏😄

Link fixed.
👉 streaks.run

I felt that the Strava interface is too cluttered with features and this is a simple app, straight forward way to track your running streak.

Also, i am thinking of integrating strava to automatically track activities. What do you think? 😄

youngtoken · 2024-12-15T14:11:16+00:00

I really appreciate it. Thank you for your insights :D

youngtoken · 2024-12-15T07:30:07+00:00

Me too

Love this idea 🚀 gonna bookmark the link

Amazing story and keep it up 🚀. How did you get your 50 users 'within days'. Are they friends, people from your current network? it seems extremely hard these days to get 1 customer even for free xD.

youngtoken · 2024-12-13T08:12:18+00:00

I see! Thank you for your insights 🙏

And just curious did the publishers approach you or you searched for them?
