Cost-cutting tips? (discuss.tchncs.de)
submitted 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) by nutbutter@discuss.tchncs.de to c/selfhosted@lemmy.world
 

What are your favourite, or least favourite but necessary, cost-cutting methods?

I feel I am spending too many resources on unnecessary stuff.

Edit: I feel the need to reduce both โ€“ the resources, to host multiple things on one system, and cost, to buy/pay for multiple systems. Currently, I have 2 ARM VPSes and 1 old MacBook Air as a home server.
