ugh. hetzner just announced a pretty significant price increase. I'm going to have to start some serious downsizing before that happens😕

@jerry Be ready for all providers to announce some in the coming weeks, the hardware world is on fire right now thanks to OpenAI and their shenanigans to kill their competitors (and the AI bubble overall).
OVH announced a 10-15% increase as well.

@renchap I don't blame Hetzner, and I know they aren't the only ones. It's going to soon impact just about everything else we do online, I am guessing.

@jerry I foresee a 25% to 50% price increase in the next 2 years for everything requiring hardware, including servers, cloud but also laptops and phones. This will have a *huge* impact.
