The whole site appears to be satire, based on the homepage. I think we can ignore this article of theirs as well.

Feel free to sign up and deploy a VM - we are a very real VPS host!

Unlike boring corporate providers, we just actually have a sense of humor (or more accurately, the developer has overdosed on TikToks and brainrot reels).

Satirical branding doesn't mean the bare-metal servers or the kernel code aren't real.

What’s wrong with satire sites? If The Onion put in the work to try this, I’d still be interested in hearing about it.

It’s true that satire is not always bad. But I dislike that they don’t make it obvious that this article is satire. It wastes people’s time who actually take it seriously (as we can see by the other HN comments). Or if it’s serious, then why is it on a satire site? They need to pick a lane and be clear about it.

		It wasn't clear to me that this was a satire article. It seemed like a reasonably serious experiment with a bad idea.
