Nerd wanted!

My hosting solution just sent me the "updated" invoice for next year and they are out of their fucking corporate minds. So rather than giving them more money, I was thinking it would be nice to pay some self-hosting hacker type (furry or not) and support weird and small rather than large and capitalist.

I would need the following:
- the fairly lightweight website orsom.eu reliably online (all html/CSS with a tiny bit of JavaScript, quite low traffic, okay just using FileZilla for access)
- a couple of email addresses with 5-10 GB of storage (a webmail client would be a plus for emergencies, but just using Thunderbird and K9 is fine)
- EU based (preferably) and better if you can send me an invoice

Do you already have something similar for yourself and don't mind me tagging along for a few years until I have the time to set up self-hosting on my own? Let me know!

Boosts appreciated ❤️

@tino I am not a nerd (I don't think) but I do all of this with a much more complicated web site (php, back end database, etc.), plus dozens of email addresses, plus Owncloud, plus Mastodon. I pay US$20/month but you could get by with half that or possibly less. My service has one-click installs for a bunch of apps, too. If you don't want Owncloud for an email/calendar/contacts client, hosting services usually have Roundcube or something similar right out of the box. You can do this!

@b23e Thanks :) I've gotten incredible feedback and plenty of options from various people here, so now I just need to sit down and compare things! Soon enough there'll be a bit less of a contribution to our capitalist overlords from my end ❤️
