Sorry for the extended downtime, I messed up when attempting to copy over the media. I should have just rsync'd it to begin with, rather than attempting to compress it first.

Anyways, everything looks to be working, but it may take a bit for DNS to be updated for everyone.

Let me know if you have any issues!

It seems like all (almost all?) lemmy instances opt for a VPS over a dedicated server. Is there any reason behind this besides cost? Just looking at ovh/kimisurfi etc and they have some reasonably priced dedicated hardware.

at least for me it was mostly cost, and the ability to easily scale up if necessary.

i've also looked at the dedi boxes at ovh and they are always on option depending on how much things grow.
