Hey dear community, we just launched today our fully managed hosting service of KBIN

We offer to do Deployment / Security / SSL / DNS / SMTP / Monitoring / Alerts / Backups / Automated updates / Handle migrations / Fully automated but with Human support :)

We deploy each instance on a dedicated VM, and we provide full root access as well if you want to customize anything.

Pricing start at $10/month (billed hourly, no contract)
https://elest.io/open-source/kbin

FYI we have interest in Open source in general, not only Fediverse even if we also support Mastodon, Friendica, PeerTube, Gitea and now KBIN!

I would love to get some feedback from the community :)

It sounds to me like the bar to deploy had been discouraging some from deploying instances.. It will be interesting to see what happens with the instance count after this.

I'd love to deploy my own instance of either kbin or lemmy, but a ten buck a month price tag is a bit steep (imho). I'll wait until there are better guides for hosting my own.

@Books that includes the server bill too.
