There should be more deals when you click add services.

Understand on the latency possibly being an issue. I did see they have servers in France now. Maybe you could do some ping tests.

If you want something cheap check out RackNerd yearly deals. Last I checked they still have listings for black Friday and other old deals once you’ve made an account. I got a server for like $12 a year with 5tb monthly bandwidth. I have 3 servers total with them and haven’t had a problem for the 3 years I’ve been using them.

JMP is great! I ported over my number that I’ve had the longest to them probably 2 years ago when it was still beta. It’s so convenient having sms on multiple devices and my computer. I have all calls from jmp forwarded to my phone with service tho. And I just switched that from AT&T prepaid to US mobile.

Edit: I also like popping in to read their group chat. Lots of nerd talk in there. Also, I’m pretty sure if you ask their support you can still get a free XMPP server with JMP service via Snikket.

Just switched to US Mobile after doing the 30 day trial.

Bill from AT&T prepaid was $65 before tax.

Now I’m $29 total. On their GSM(T-Mobile) network I was pulling 250 down.

Proxmox, OpenMediaVault VM, Docker, Portainer, SnapRaid.

There is a fork now

Is it really even secure? Are we to trust these companies at their word? E2E “encryption” that goes thru their servers, not open source, SoCs that’s the real Admin of your device that has direct access to everything including “private” keys.

It has nothing to do with me making anything “secure”, because modern consumer tech is incapable of that. but i have my own domain, currently using MXRoute as the provider(because its cheap). Have my own XMP server(Snikket) to chat with friends even tho I can’t fully trust it because of how all devices are compromised. Think Intel Management Engine, AMT, Pluton and whatever the heck is going on with the blackbox chip in every smartphone. There is no true privacy with tech.
