out of curiosity, what applications/purpose could this serve for someone who just runs a basic homelab? intrigued!
Can someone provide some use cases for this? Curious how I can extend my homelab via this.
I use one of these VMs for two things. Monitoring my network back home using Uptime Kuma and Tailscale. As well as as a Tailscale exit node (essentially a VPN).
But is racknerd reliable?
Should be worth mentioning that a VPS is a shared instance in terms of CPU use. Hosting heavy things on it will only slow you down.
Wireguard tunnels and the like though should be good!
ionos has a low tier starting at 2€/month for 10GB storage, 500 MB ram, 100 Mbit unlimited traffic.
I don't know if they had any black Friday sales, that is just their base offering. I am very happy with the server I have.
