| What's going on with Dreamhost lately? Is it falling apart? |

| I havent seen anyone talk about it for the last 10-15 yrs. I would have guessed it fell apart already |

| ▲ | PaulDavisThe1st 4 hours ago | parent [-] | | I don't mean "support for using mailing lists". I meant "they no longer provide the services (i.e. mailman) to run mailing lists" | | |
| ▲ | trollbridge 3 hours ago | parent [-] | | Nobody wants to run a service like that anymore. | | |
| ▲ | bigiain 2 hours ago | parent | next [-] | | i wouldn't be so sure. I know I move in privacy and "anti big tech" circles, but I (and a lot of people I know) am moving a lot of my personal/recreational internet time to rss feeds of personal websites, mailing lists, and Mastodon. And there's a fair bit of discussion and small but growing use of private and very small group federated Mastodon hosts. Having said that, very little of that is being done by the sort of people who'd host it on a service like Dreamhost. | |

| No, they’re still doing well. Support is primarily via chat these days. Pricing wise they don’t beat Herzner anymore but are somewhat competitive with Digital Ocean. I am gradually moving everyone to my own self hosting mostly for supportability reasons. We want to react in seconds, not hours, when a customer has an issue. |
