I run Pinboard. I have my own hardware running Ubuntu. The site itself runs PHP+MySQL, with perl scripts for backend tasks. I make heavy use of Twitter to talk about unrelated topics, and eventually people take pity and sign up for the site, using either Stripe or PayPal.

Thank you for running a straightforward reliable fast service long term without f-ing it up with feature creep or monetization rot.

I trust it and use it every day.

PAAS (Pity As A Service) is a very amenable business model. I think I'd find it a natural fit if I could be arsed to actually build something.

I eventually took pity and signed up. Kidding, I signed up because it's a very simple, no fuss, useful service, and I'm getting a lot of use out of it, so thanks.

Probably the only service where I got more than my money's worth...

If only you would respond to emails with feature requests and bug reports, and then do something about them.
