I love their high value content about dev ops, I have learned most of what I know in this field tinkering with a VPS with their great tutorials on how to set up stuff.

They filled the Slicehost vacuum nicely in this area. That's where I got my start in running my own servers about 15 years ago and the tutorials were the driving factor.

Seriously! They have an amazing article I followed one time to set up a k8s cluster to run any container I wanted with full automatic ssl provisioning/management and dns. Make a quick little yml file that includes what subdomain it wants to be and kubectl apply. The cluster was like $100 a month all-in and performed like a beast at huge traffic levels, and all I did was follow a tutorial.

I know that’s probably pretty easy for many, but I was pretty new to k8s and it felt like magic.
