Possible, yes. Oracle has a bad rep for deleting instances on their free tier though.

Edit to clarify: VM instances, not Lemmy instances specifically.

Doesn’t seem like too big of an issue. If you use object storage for images and take backups of the database you could redeploy rather easily if it gets euthanized by Oracle.

A docker config or ansible setup should make this pretty easy.

Create a post

A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don’t control.

Rules:

  1. Be civil: we’re here to support and learn from one another. Insults won’t be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.

  2. No spam posting.

  3. Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it’s not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.

  4. Don’t duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.

  5. Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).

  6. No trolling.
