#72Interesting, I looked into some of these types of services for my SaaS but used none of the listed providers except Mollie. I landed on IONOS for hosting, Scaleway for transactional mails, mailbox.org for receiving and sending manual mails and statichost.eu for hosting my docs.

OVH is one of the cheapest and works satisfactorily for me. I went back to OVH when Gandi stopped being a recommendable company. OVH's API allows full control of an account, but I don't know how that compares to DNSimple.
When and why did Gandi stop being recommendable?
they got acquired in 2023, prices went up and the free mailboxes turned into a monthly fee

#74You are missing https://unikraft.com/pricing . Amazing compute, 2 instances free. A German company. Offers EU hosting too. Just a happy paying user myself
You can only sign-up via Google or GitHub, so American companies. Definitely doesn't belong on the list.
What? Why do people do this? Let me sign in with my damn email address, like a normal person. Why do you have to assume I have a Google account?

#75As someone who tries to "buy local", I have been a happy customer of the following recommended services for many months or years: - Hetzner (Cloud, Box, and Object Storage) - Brevo (for transactional emails) - Mollie For monitoring I use and recommend UpDown.io, which doesn’t seem to be listed there.
After Sendgrid got acquired by Twilio and retired their free plan, i also went with Brevo and am quite happy with it. No deliverability issues on the major email operators (Google, MS365) at all, decent delivery speed.
Not European, but Zoho Zeptomail is cheap as hell and very good. I can definitely recommend it.

#76I know it's boring to comment and say that something sounds like it was written by an AI, but this sounds like it was written by an AI. I am often especially suspicious of these listicle recommendation sites because it's pretty cheap and easy to have dozens of sites doing some list which just so happens to mention a specific service that 'quietly' does a 'surprisingly good job' of some doodad. This kind of submarine…
The use of the word genuinely is always a dead giveaway
That's kind of sad to me, I've used that word a lot, it was my go-to and best technique for trying to convey sincerity in comment sections

Yeah you just allow setting a new passkey by sending an email link, just like password resets. Passkeys don't have to be remembered, can't be phished, and don't need 2FA.
That's highly misleading to outright misinformation. > Passkeys don't have to be remembered Because you need an app for the login flow. You also don't have to remember passwords if you use a password manager app. > don't need 2FA Not true, a second factor in the form of eg a biometric ID or PIN is mandatory. Phishing resistance exists, but only truly so if you completely surrender control over your device and access…
No it is not. You’re free to save passkeys in your manager of choice and it still won’t let you use a passkey on the wrong website. Users are freed from having to copy&paste TOTPs. No app other than a browser needed.

Because it gets you a minimal amount of abuse prevention for free.

#79On Herzner add Dokploy (Honduras, I prefer this even if it's not European) or Coolify (Hungary) to get a Vercel-like PaaS experience for free. Any others that are good?
We've been building canine.sh free and open source for an enterprise ready deployment platform. Think about it like coolify is to a VPS as Canine is to Kubernetes.
Currently getting a 503 on the docs: https://docs.canine.sh/

When will AI generated content have been prevalent enough for it to be consumed more than traditional content - and can we at that point consider humans the ones being trained, especially new humans, such that next gen human generated content clearly is heavily influenced by slop? I myself already feel like my style is being influenced by all conversations I've had with LLM, if not influenced by their responses, at l…
> can we at that point consider humans the ones being trained, especially new humans, such that next gen human generated content clearly is heavily influenced by slop?
Already happened, most of the internet pre-AI was just human-generated SEO-optimized slop created by underpaid content writers in third world countries. All those listicles, informaticals, etc, are now currently being used to train AI, but before that, they were what "trained" humans.
