I migrated from the US servers to the EU servers and while looking through my settings I noticed that my renewal was $19.80 instead of $12 last year. At first I thought that the EU servers are much more expensive and was upset that support didn't tell me before migration, but it turns out that's just the new price.

May I ask which Hetzner VPS did you choose? I wonder if the Cost-Optimized ones are sufficient. I would be using it with max 2 users, same as you.
If I go with the VPS option I'd like to host Immich instead. But it seems to be hungry for memory, especially with the ML features enabled.
I really don't understand this "Nextcloud does too much" rhetoric, the standard bare metal installation is basically just Files, Photos, Calendar and Contacts
That's just my impression based on their website, it looks like a business suite, but I'm probably looking at it wrong. Thank you, the part about the database is important.
A bonus question regarding the 3-2-1 backup strategy. If my VPS is in Germany, but I spin up a Storage Box in Finland, that falls within the boundaries of "off-site backup", even if both are managed by Hetzner. What do you think? It's just easiest to setup, I guess. Otherwise I need another cloud provider (perhaps some S3 object storage).
I was looking at this self-hosting guide and scratching my head in confusion. They say $80 nets you a 4TB HDD. Meanwhile, in my country that costs more like $220+. Yes, for an HDD, not SSD (that would be more like way over $500). I see the guide has been updated this year, so either the US lives in another world or nobody has updated the pricing.
Weird, my pet said the same. Is your password also ************* ?
I thought Germany was a progressive country. Why only men?
