Krydos

We offer different response time and speed depending on which server you choose. Johnny, the server that you are on, is the slowest response time and slowest speed. It isn't intended for production websites. We just offer it for people who don't want to wait for space on a production server, and want to start experimenting immediately. Free signups usually last for 8 hours or so. Ricky is our basic PHP, MySQL, python, and just basic stuff like that. It's a production server so it has decent uptime, but is a little slower than Tommy. Free signups usually last an hour or so. Tommy is our best free server. It offers the most features, such as Java/JSP, and Node.js, and has the best speed and uptime of our free servers. The main downside is Tommy fills within 10 seconds or so each day so it's pretty hard to get a free account. If you don't want to deal with the hassle of trying to signup during a 3-10 second window at midnight UTC you can also make a one-time donation of $1 USD or more to get a Tommy account immediately. We also offer VPS service starting at $4 per month that gives you root access to install anything you want. You can install nginx, mongodb, and other popular services that we don't provide on our free hosting. You get the whole server to yourself so you don't need to worry about memory usage and stuff like that.

Try now.

Johnny will be the last server to be rebuilt. It might be a while.

You know, I was thinking about it some more, and I realized: I spend like 18 hours a day in front of a really high-quality, high-resolution monitor that has extremely good contrast ratio. Honestly, when websites and text documents and stuff use 100% white background with 100% black text there is so much contrast that it hurts my eyes after a while. Having a light, but not 100% white background, and a dark, but not 100% black text is much more soothing, and I can read it for longer without discomfort. Even better for me is night mode, with black background and light text, but I don't think that appeals to most people. My phone is even worse. I have an OLED screen that has a ridiculous 1,000,000:1 contrast ratio. It doesn't get any more contrast than that. The whites are searingly bright and the blacks couldn't possibly be blacker. Since I test the emails and website on my phone in addition to my monitor the contrast always seems really strong in both places. Anyways, like I said, I'm not a font or design expert, and to make matters even worse I'm color blind too. I'm more of a backend code type admin, but someone has to make the website and someone has to make the emails so it falls to me. Since I don't know much about it I just mostly copied stuff from websites and emails that I like the looks of. Thanks for the feedback. It made me consider things that had never occurred to me.

I'm certainly not a font expert, but I've always found sans serif fonts to be easier for me to read. Maybe it's just me, but I associate serif fonts with like newspapers and 100 year old print books. All the books I read are on my phone, and I can control the font to be a sans font too. I've never in my life read a newspaper. It's surprising to me that complicating the letter with all sorts of little spikes and unnecessary lines would make it easier to read. I talked to a few other people about serif fonts, showed them samples, asked which was easier to read, and they all said sans too. Maybe it's just personal preference on which is easier to read. I totally understand the darkness of the font affecting readability though. I'll see what I can do about that. We've sent out probably 100,000 emails with this same template and this same font color, and you're the first person to mention it.

In the email or on the website?

Yes, what is the transaction id? I’m not seeing any transactions in PayPal using your email address. Thanks. I think this is why the payment isn't being linked to your VPS in the system. Once you provide the transaction id everything should be fine. You can email it to me or post it here.

Thanks for being so understanding.

You unsubscribed from our emails so you'll never receive an email from us again, and that includes the backup emails. Would you like me to resubscribe you?

It's hard to estimate because we've never installed Plesk before. It may take some time before we can have everything set up correctly. What server are you on? Tommy will be switched over first. We will be transferring the existing accounts so you won't need to register again.

Yeah, no problem. We'll come back even better than before.

Thanks for being so understanding.

Thanks for being so understanding. After we get everything rebuilt let us know and we can host your website again.

By default the VPS are just a bare os with nothing installed. You can request a control panel, or you can install it yourself. A popular free control panel that a lot of people use is Hestia. If you install a control panel it installs apache, email, php, mysql and everything for you. You can of course install everything manually without a control panel too. One advantage that Hestia has is there is a cPanel to Hestia converter script that you can use to import your cpmove file that you can download from https://www.heliohost.org/backup/ and it automatically extracts your files, and databases, and emails, and domains and everything into the Hestia control panel. If you want I can install Hestia and import your backup file for you, or you have root access so you can do it yourself if you want too. Just let us know.

Yes, VPS can easily be upgraded or downgraded. If you decide to downgrade your hard drive space, it can be done, but the operating system has to be reinstalled fresh again. Upgrading is easy though.

You're welcome.

Yeah, maybe we could ask for $17,000 ransom to get their CEO back alive. Just doing the same thing cPanel does to everyone else.

Yes, your domain is working fine for now, but we'll need to eventually shut down the Johnny server and rebuild it with Plesk. While the server is offline your site will be down. The VPS are regular Linux virtual machines. For most uses the basic Mercury plan is enough, but if you need more memory, cpus, hard drive space, or an OS other than Ubuntu 20 you can customize it. For backups of VPS you can just download the files you need to your home pc using SFTP or rsync or anything else that you want to install. Support for a VPS is basically the same as support for a shared hosting account. You can email, post on the forums, ask on discord, etc.

root@tommy [/home/esn024/public_html/animatsiya/subtitles]# ls -la|wc -l 828 Yeah, you're right. Not sure why the script would have gotten some of the files, but not all of them.

When we rebuild the server with Plesk we will attempt to restore all the cPanel accounts onto the new control panel. We've never done it before, but all files and databases, and emails and everything should be transferred over automatically. If anything is missing you can extract it from the full backup and set it back up. You won't lose your domain.

We will be providing free hosting again as soon as we rebuild our servers with Plesk.

There's some Wordpress to Joomla converters listed in here https://extensions.joomla.org/category/migration-a-conversion/data-import-a-export/ I didn't see any free ones though, but maybe I missed it skimming through quickly.

It looks like our ISP finally restarted their nameservers. root@tommy [/home/krydos]# dig +noall +answer -x 65.19.141.201 201.141.19.65.in-addr.arpa. 86400 IN CNAME 201.subnet192.141.19.65.in-addr.arpa. 201.subnet192.141.19.65.in-addr.arpa. 14400 IN PTR mail.itslucas.win.

Does it run on both Windows and Linux?

Our end is set up, just waiting on our ISP to delegate reverse dns control of that /28 to us.
