Problem with Terraform is it assumes cloud providers, which tend to be expensive (or at least, I don't know a way to do terraform on hetzner dedis :D )

My solution is to get cheapskate VPS and dedis and loadbalance them as frontends. The VM request is manual, but I only have to do this once anyway. It's what I'm currently doing with the AI Horde. Of course, that doesn't help when there's DB changes but still.

What object storage are you using btw? I'm thinking to move to R2 or smt since I've had good experience with them until now. Contabo's is way cheaper but when I tried to use it for high-demand stuff it dropped dead on the spot. But it might be ok for Lemmy.
