More like I have no personality and just go with the flow 😜

In 2010 I was part of the Great Digg Exodus, and now in 2025 I'm part of the Reddit->Lemmy migration. Truly I'm part of the crowd.
At this point I've decided to migrate away from WordPress. I should have a while ago.
CanSpace.ca looks really cool, thanks for suggesting it!
Sounds like I need to migrate away from wordpress. Which I kind of already knew.
I hadn't found that one yet! Thank you!
The sites I run don't get too much traffic, but performance is still important. When I looked into hostpapa I saw a lot of bad reviews online. You can't believe everything you read, though it's enough to keep me cautious.
This might be my choice. I'm going to do more reading.
Probably nitpicks, but I found a lot of the ones I came across charged an extra $50/year for a LetsEncrypt SSL cert which rubs me wrong since LetsEncrypt is free. A few others I found claimed to be Canadian and even had their offices in Canada but were ultimately American owned, which is a dealbreaker for me.
I do have a shortlist of a few, but I want to be thorough since whoever I pick I'll probably be with indefinitely.
I hadn't come across this one when I was searching around, thank you! They look cool!
I have considered this! And I used to back in the day! I haven't completely ruled it out, and I probably could cobble together a Frankenstein box, though I'm not sure the performance would be enough (the only extra MOBO/CPU I have is an ancient Core2Duo). Also, I wonder if the electricity cost would be more than $10/month. I should do some math..
They care about money. If they don't go alone with it they probably get fined. So yeah, I think they will.
And it's not uncommon. Lots of countries don't call other countries by their names. Japan is Nihon. China is Zhōngguó. Germany is Deutschland.
But those are for historical reasons, changing it specifically to be different is nuts.
