I've had my first full month running this blog on a Digital Ocean droplet. These are the approximate costs:
- Will be just under $10 AUD a month (give or take USD to AUD exchange rate)
- The equates to around
744
hours of usage - Since shifting to using
systemd
everything has been very stable, if the server dies (often seemingly due to lack of RAM on the droplet) it will restart itself - My droplet has a 1-Core CPU, 512 MB of RAM, 10 GB SSD
