I’ve look at Linode, and I know a lot devs prefer their services. I moved to DO around 5 years ago I suppose now. Every now and then I consider switching, but that’d be a process.
I don’t think I installed a web server on that droplet. One of the things I wanted to do was see if I could connect my apps to it that are running on a different VPS there, which I did with no problem. I’m pretty sure I made the snapshot right after I tested that and then played with the VPS for another week or so before shutting it off. Just before I shut it off I did an update & upgrade on my production CouchDB server and it upgraded CouchDB to 3.0. I really didn’t expect that but it went smooth as a baby’s butt so that’s what I’m using now, --, Bill > On Apr 23, 2020, at 10:59 PM, Bill Stephenson <[email protected]> > wrote: > > Well, it shouldn’t muck anything up to try the Let’s Encrypt route, and it > doesn’t cost anything. > > I have a Digital Ocean “snapshot” of an Ubuntu 18.04 server with CouchDB 3.0 > & SSL installed on it I set up last month.
