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;

ubergeek77 for deploying multi arch images of Lemmy.

Thank you ❤️ Although I'm not sure is it about Photon but I'm getting the error below 🤷‍♂️

start service photon: unable to find user photon: no matching entries in passwd file

Update: now it fixed thank you for all your work!
