New Year New Server

Posted on 01/12/2019 in misc

My web host got bought out by a large hosting company that I don't want to deal with. So I get to migrate to a new host. This is made infinitely easier by the fact that this site is just a collection of HTML files and images. Yay for not needing a database to spew my words out here!

Anyway, if you are reading this I've successfully move the site and reconfigured DNS settings. I'm doing this mostly as an easy way to make sure I'm seeing the site on the new host, as this post was uploaded after the move.

For the curious, I'm now hosting with NearlyFreeSpeech.net.. I've also moved email to Polaris Mail, and I've set up a hosted Nextcloud with OwnCube for filesync. Spreading services around the Internet cut my annual cost over 50%.

I like hearing from readers, all three of you! Nobody comments on blogs anymore, and I'd rather not use Facebook or Twitter as a comment system so it's back to the email.
