Gotta get some YUNOHOST love sometime bro.

I found all sorts of great deals on LowEndBox.com.
They have lots of information and deals for Virtual Private Servers.
I just bought 2 instances from HostUS.us to go full on self hosted.
Just make sure you understand what you are getting before signing up for anything.

Hello all, first time poster.

I have just read an email and blog post regarding the fate of Sandstorm from Kenton Varda.

In short, Sandstorm the company has ran out of money. Sandstorm will continue as an open source project. Kenton is asking for engineers to to help with coding. Other forms of support include signing up for a paid account on Sandstorm Oasis. Sandstorm Oasis will continue to operate as normal as will Sandcats.io. Lastly, Sandstorm for Work will have its paywall removed.

It doesn't look like this will affect users who have downloaded Sandstorm already. While not mentioned, it might appear that the free tier Sandstorm Oasis instance may not be available in the future, due to the financial situation.

Ugh... one more reason to just get your own VPS and pull yourself up by your own boot straps.
Plus you can get some killer VPS deals at www.lowendbox.com - like $1 per month.
