  • It just works and it’s in every distros default repo, it’s pretty easy to set up and can be a webserver for static files, PHP sites, etc… It can be a reverse proxy for HTTP(s) traffic or just forward TCP/UDP.

    There’s also endless documentation out there for how to do something in nginx.

    HAProxy is a nightmare to use in my experience. It just feels so clunky and old.

    Caddy is nice, but downloading and updating it is a pain because you need modules that aren’t included in the repo version.











  • Is immich in a usable state yet?

    I’ve been using it for 388 days (as helpfully shown by the new buy button, nice touch), and it’s been stable and rock solid the entire time.

    I’ve had a few times it went offline, due to the breaking changes in the docker compose file because I auto-update everything, but it’s always been like a 2 minute fix and it’s back online.

    Everything is backed up on my server nightly with incremental backups, both locally and online. So I’m not really worried about something going catastrophically wrong and deleting all my photos or something.

    (just point to a folder and you’re good to go)

    Immich has that in external library support, it’s pretty easy to set up.






  • Fair, it does depend on what games you’re hosting. I often have multiple servers for different games running and some can use upwards of 10GB of RAM each when in use.

    Highest I’ve had I think was an Avorion server that hit around 20GB of RAM usage with 5 or so players on.

    I find that VPS cores are often very low performance cores, since they want high core density in their servers vs fewer high performance cores, and for games like Arma 3, Minecraft, Enshrouded, etc they really need high single thread performance to work well.
