hello,

I have recently bought a VPS from Linode and I thinking about using it to host some stuff but I don’t know what I want to host and what I can host. I don’t have a domain name so the traffic is http only :(. but I haven’t hosted anything sensitive so I think it’s fine.

what have you hosted on your VPS or physical server?
