We were using 4 vCPU, 8 RAM x86 server for 15.7€.

Now we're using 8 vCPU, 16 RAM ARM server for 14.4€!

We literally doubled the specs for cheaper price! I don't understand why an ARM server is this cheap, but I don't really care. It's working great right now.

Only disadvantage of this is Photon and Alexandrite UIs are not working. Not researched yet but they're probably not compatible with ARM. But I'll find a way because I like Alexandrite and using it a lot lately.

Also I removed Cloudflare proxy. Although they offer an excellent service for free, I believe they're not fitting in decentralized nature of fediverse.

Thanks to;

Hello, I'm the photon dev.

I really want to add ARM docker images but I can't test locally for some reason. Does anyone know how to make GitHub actions publish ARM images?

Hey! I really wish to know but I’m not familiar with it. Voyager and MLMYM working good, how about copying theirs?
