I just want a cheap way to live debug sites in Safari / Safari Mobile without being forced to purchase Apple hardware. Only reasonable option I've come across so far is buying used hardware. VM under Win10/AMD seems like a PITA.

#43I have seen mixed reviews about Hetzner online. Does anyone have any enlightening anecdotal evidence in favor or against the company?
They are truly great for thrifty do-it-yourself hosting. Don't expect customer support or discounts or anything, but their prices are impossible to beat, and everything works as advertised. The big gotcha is that their only points of presence are in Germany and Finland. My only gripe would be that running your business on Hetzner can be a little bit scary at times since they have so much unattended automation in plac…
I had a CS class last semester where the students used some Hetzner cloud servers. I always got an email or two before having the servers IPs blocked. And it were mostly students' faults by choosing easy passwords..
I recommend Hetzner! No affiliation, just a happy user..

Used totally makes sense. I picked up a Mac Mini with a 27" monitor for $500.

To be fair, you can also book a managed server with them.
For their hosted hardware offering, HDD/SSD swaps (or even "we replace everything about your server because it produces random faults except your HDDS") are within reasonable timeframes (i.e. usually within an hour).
They, however, will not diagnose this for you - that part is on you.

Why not Browserstack?
1) Access to a Desktop Mac and a Desktop Safari.
2) An iOS device.
The Safari debugger recognizes a plugged-in iOS device and then allows to debug the iOS safari remotely. That's the only reliable way to find iOS specific JS or CSS issues. Browserstack alone does not help, unfortunately AFAIR.

I have heard that they disconnect you for a couple of hours if youre being heavily DDOSSed tho.
