Off-topic, we used to use GoDaddy for VPS for our free/open source software project. It was a crummy service offering one virtual core, 1 GB of RAM and no swap file. The VPS ran on a circa-2005 4-core Athlon machine. The server had constant problems because the OOM killer would whack our MySQL process. We needed it for a Mediawiki installation . The machine could not handle the LAMP stack. And GoDaddy would send us nastygrams threatening to stop service because of bots. When the spam bots tried to create a new page the wiki server pegged at about 100% cpu for a moment while that new editor was spun-up. We now use Ionos (https://www.ionos.com/hosting/web-hosting). The cheapest plan is $1/month. We splurge a bit and pay $5 for the extra core and extra memory. No more OOM problems, and no more nastygrams. Jeff
