@thej@social.thej.in Hey! That looks cool!
I am curious, I guess you run it with only "1 instance"?
And do you have any kind of SSH access? As for now, some maintenance tasks are done via the command line (like pruning old objects from the DB to save space).
Thanks!
@dev@microblog.pub yes, 1 VCPU and 512MB RAM. I got an extra volume and have mapped it to "/app/data".
- 1 shared VCPU is free. I am using only that.
- 512 MB RAM is $3.19/mo
- Storage 1, 3GB is free, ( $0.15/GB per month of provisioned capacity, above 3GB)
- 160GB data transfer is free
You can ssh. In fact I did SSH and run some commands.
It took a while for me to set this ( @dev@microblog.pub ) up using https://fly.io. I wanted fly as its docker based and needs minimal maintenance. I have upgraded the RAM to 512MB as the free instance comes only with 256MB. And microblog needs at least 300MB. I have no plans to upload pictures here ( I will probably link/emebed it from the main site) so I am guessing my volume of 3GB is good enough for start. We will see how it goes. I can increase the size of the volume that contains the sqlite database.
I like the simplicity of this application.
