Basically as the title asks. It looks like the .wtf instance is down again, and I’m starting to think more seriously about hosting my own instance. I imagine I’d have to pay for the domain name, and for a server to host it, but are there any Peertube instance hosters that can confirm if there are other costs involved?

Edit: Looks like the .wtf instance is back up, so thanks to the admin for that! However I’d still take any advice I can get on setting up an instance in case it’s needed

    If you have a small instance like mine with 20 users and only like 500 vids, you can get a vserver with like 512GB of space for less than 10€ including domain. I however recommend doing registration per approval only due to people wanting to spam sites with spam videos or upload stuff that is regionally illegal. I’ve had at least crypto scammers try to register on my site before but luckily there are certain things they are bad at hiding.
