FediHost - Managed Fediverse Hosting

If you’d like a PieFed instance of your own but don’t want to deal with setting up a server, installing PieFed, and maintaining it yourself, get in touch with the team at fedihost.co! They’re currently offering reduced-price PieFed hosting to a limited number of instances as part of a beta program.

They’re looking for a mix of new and established PieFed instances so they can better understand real-world resource usage and what people need. Final pricing is to be determined based on how things go but if you look at what they charge for Mastodon, etc you can see it's very reasonable - https://fedihost.co/pricing

See https://fedihost.co/beta-program for the fine print.

Send them an email at contact@fedihost.co to get things started!

  • Kinda odd that they don't mention if the prices are in Canadian dollars or not.

    Also no mention on where their servers are located, but presumably Canada.

  • It is kinda wierd that gotosocial is more expensive than cheapest mastodon tier, considering it is computationally lighter (atleast that is what it's intended goal was iirc). Maybe they can experiment around reducing the system usage for it (maybe cut in half).

    For me personally - I am interested, but cost is high for me. if I could do something like 20-30$ for full year (so 2-2.5$ bucks a month), that would be great. I know that is a lot less, but for plebs like me - do not even get me a domain name (and save a 1-12 bucks a year), just a subdomain works (for example user.fedihost.co or something), just a gotosocial instance (maybe 0.5 to 1 gig ram or at most 2 gigs. 1 shared virtual cpu, 5 gibs storage, and even a cdn is not required). I think that would be close to bare minimum system usable, and also within reach for most people (i live in a third world country, even 5 bucks is like a days work for more than half the nation.)
