I’ve just completed moving lemmy.ca and piefed.ca away from using Cloudflare’s proxy service, this means traffic now comes directly from our server instead of being routed through any US based companies. Pixelfed.ca is still on deflect.ca for the moment.
Let me know please if you run into any problems or errors!
Note that in order to avoid making too many major changes at once, our DNS is still hosted by cloudflare. I’ll be moving that away from them later this week
Update April 3rd: We’ve off their DNS now too, and pixelfed.ca is now off deflect as well. All done rearranging!
what provider do you use to host the actual instance on?
been looking for a good one for some publicly facing services, went with xenyth, seems alright but they charge in USD despite being canadian
We own our own hardware in a datacenter, so I can’t help =)
Sasktel apparently does some form of cloud infrastructure now, haven’t actually looked into it but they are looking to expand their customer base to across Canada
I use Servarica out of Montreal but I checked my invoices and it says USD as well
If you want to manage a VPS, I have been happy with OVH. Very cheap, hosted in Montreal. Not Canadian, but European owned.
