@ACCU web, email and other servers are now migrated from #Bytemark to @beasts - and, for bonus points, on IPv6 only servers, thanks to the @beasts IPv4/IPv6 proxy.

#Bytemark are a terribly pale shadow of what was a great operation. @beasts though, are a delight, and really, really know their stuff.

End of an era. No more servers with #Bytemark after 18 years.

Sad, really. A company that is literally named after the separator in an IPv6 address, no longer has an IPv6 address for its own website and email now it is under the iomart umbrella.

I've been meaning to move for quite some time, but recent events made it rather urgent.

Thanks to the team at @beasts for helping me build a life-raft at short notice.

Lots more work to do, but we're clear.

Completed the migration of my server from Bytemark to @beasts.

Great support from people who know what they are doing. I've got a slightly faster server, a clean Debian install and even saved a little money too - so great deal all round.

Ambulance-chasing isn’t really our thing but we’ve already helped a number of ex-Bytemark / BigV customers avoid the AWS lock-in tractor beam so we might as well say it out loud here:
