Hey dear community, we just launched today our fully managed hosting service of KBIN

We offer to do Deployment / Security / SSL / DNS / SMTP / Monitoring / Alerts / Backups / Automated updates / Handle migrations / Fully automated but with Human support :)

We deploy each instance on a dedicated VM, and we provide full root access as well if you want to customize anything.

Pricing start at $10/month (billed hourly, no contract)
https://elest.io/open-source/kbin

FYI we have interest in Open source in general, not only Fediverse even if we also support Mastodon, Friendica, PeerTube, Gitea and now KBIN!

I would love to get some feedback from the community :)

    I tried to self host using the docs and docker.

    Normally I would check out source, build and deploy, but the docs suggest an entirely manual deployment or build/deploy via docker compose.

    The issue I hit was figuring out what had failed in the process, I would have preferred a CI guide to produce working docker images and a CD guide for deploying the docker images.

    The reason I gave up is there aren’t any release markers, I tried with develop and main and couldn’t figure out if it was me or the branches weren’t in a buildable state.

    I don’t expect the a release to be perfect just an indicator that a working product was created at this point.
