#flyio — Public Fediverse posts

Is this the things to come? #FlyIO memory for their servers is going up 20%.

As far as I know, Fly.io uses it's own infraestructure. So, if you already bought your own datacenter memory, how the fuck these just "magically" went up?

Basically, if you pay $2,000 for memory, now is $2,400. Bonkers.

6 years ago hosting a #Elixir #Phoenix app was daunting.

From #Gigalixir, #Render, to #Flyio.

The tools from those providers did a lot, but at the time there's always something missing that needed manual fixing and custom scripting.

Finally settled on a good cheap VPS that I could control.

I wanted an experience similar to Heroku and a #Dokku VPS did the job.

I like it. Few edge cases, and since I know my way around docker I'll manage just fine.

TL;DR: Brainiac CEO pivoting (again) because of what some JS/vibeslop peddler said on Youtube.

Then he quits and puts the fmr CEO of Docker in charge.

And I still can't understand what did they pivoted to this time, "Docker for Agents" or something like that.

I didn't wanna host with Vercel, and certainly I didn't need a Vercel copycat.

🚀 Oh no, the captain's leaving the sinking ship! As if Kurt Mackey stepping down is going to magically optimize Fly.io into the stratosphere. Maybe they'll find a new CEO in their endless menu of buzzword salads and stale frameworks. 🍃👋

So #flyio is betting solely on agentic workloads. That's a thing you can do. 😅

But honestly, there's SO many #PaaS solutions out there. Trying to deviate is the real pitch here. I'm curious how they mature with this.

10 дней спустя: как мой бот дважды умирал незаметно, а метрика релевантности мне врала

Полторы недели назад я выложил на Habr бота с лентой хороших новостей на sqlite-vec за $5/мес. Потом пришли живые юзеры — и началось самое интересное. Не код. Эксплуатация. За 10 дней в проде: 🪦 Бот дважды умирал незаметно — поллил Telegram и казался живым, но не создавал ни одной новости по 4–5 дней. Один раз — OOM на загрузке модели, другой — feedparser.parse(url) без таймаута заморозил весь пайплайн. 📉 Метрика релевантности «рухнула» до 30% — и я чуть не откатил рабочую фичу. Оказалось, один юзер поставил 106 дизлайков из 228 и отравил и метрику, и приор источников. Починил, считая по уникальным юзерам — правда оказалась 42%. 🎯 Реакции 78 человек сами показали , какие источники выкинуть: tech-аудитория отвергает общие новости и любит курируемое. Внутри — реальные логи, код фиксов (httpx-таймаут, watchdog, робастные метрики) и уроки про надёжность воркеров и доверие к цифрам. 👉 @futur_e_news_bot

Я собрал Telegram-бота с лентой новостей, которая учится на твоих реакциях — и хостится за $5 в месяц

Хотел ленту новостей без двух вещей: дублей (одно событие из пяти каналов с разными заголовками) и потока негатива по утрам. Получился Telegram-бот, который по умолчанию показывает только хорошие и нейтральные новости — а тяжёлый контент включается в настройках на 4 уровнях. Плюс он убирает дубли, переводит RU↔EN и подстраивает выдачу под твои реакции 🔥 ❤️ 😢. Но самое интересное — он живёт на одной машине Fly.io за ~$5 в месяц . В статье разбираю, как: заменил Postgres + pgvector на встраиваемый sqlite-vec и убрал отдельную БД-машину; гоняю типизацию, перевод и оценку тональности через бесплатные LLM на OpenRouter (счёт $0–1/мес); считаю эмбеддинги локально на fastembed /ONNX без внешних API; собрал рекомендательное ядро на «векторе вкуса» с EWMA и анти-баблом. И, конечно, грабли : sqlite-vec , который ломался на arm64; vec0 без INSERT OR REPLACE ; fastembed , сменивший пулинг между версиями; и LLM, которая «подкручивала» оценки негатива, пока я не дал ей чёткую рубрику. 👉 Бот живой, можно потрогать: @futur_e_news_bot

Закурсорить мечту. Часть 2: Технологический стек

Эта статья — 2я часть серии о создании реальных веб-сервисов с помощью ИИ-инструментов, таких как Cursor. На первый взгляд, выбор стека может казаться чисто техническим решением. Но когда вы создаёте ПО с помощью Курсора, стек фактически становится частью инструкции, которую вы даёте ИИ . Если вы не определите его заранее, ИИ будет импровизировать. Не хочу даже думать, к чему это приведет.

Закурсорить мечту. Часть 1: А стоит ли пробовать?

Если кто-то из вас мечтает создать свой продукт, но не может решиться, копит бюджет или ищет инвесторов, этот цикл может изменить вашу жизнь. Материал будет также полезен фаундерам с техническим складом ума, кто привык опираться на команду разработки, но старадает из-за сроков и стоимости реализации проектов.

Been reading a bit more on #sprites from #flyio and #Docker Sandboxes.
The gist is trying to isolate as much as possible. So you can run insecure workloads on these environments. Which is usually agentic by default.

Though, for secure workloads, they still make no sense. 😅

I think a lot of the cloud providers get lost in well... the cloud. 😅

You can do what #flyio #sprites does with #lxd/#incus system containers. It has all the ec2 magic there as well.

App containers help packaging software. But inhibit developing the software itself.

Chúng tôi sử dụng Fly.io cho một API mạng xã hội lớn, nhưng gặp vấn đề về chi phí (1,200-1,500 USD/tháng) và uptime kém. Sau đó, chúng tôi chuyển sang tự triển khai trên Hetzner, dùng Coolify và cải thiện đáng kể. Câu hỏi là: Fly.io thật sự tệ hay do bản thân code chưa tối ưu? Đã tối ưu lại backend Nest.js, hy vọng sẽ ổn. #Coolify #FlyIO #TựTriểnKhai #DevOps #CôngNghệ

Thinking about moving off Vercel? 🚀

I wrote a deep-dive guide on the best hosting alternatives for web devs in 2025 — costs, trade-offs, and my real migration lessons.

Fixed my #Plex-to-#Mastodon script since moving it off #FlyIO. No sense in paying for that if I can easily host it on a pre-existing server.

#PHP #script #developer #development #API

Honestly, a #docker #compose is how paas should be defining to run services. Good job #flyio! 🫡

I get it, everyone wants their moat. 🫠 But for sake of clarity and ease, compose spec travels an immense way. Which is what we should all be driving towards. 😅

#LaravelCloud just charged me $5 for an app with zero traffic and no hibernation. That’s it, I’m outtie.

There are many other competitors with a mature platform for PHP projects and better specs. Plus, their “Free” tier does well hiding the “+ usage” that is charged. If that’s how they play ball I’m not going back.

Interesting reflection by @mrkurt about Fly.io's exploration of GPU-related services.

> At one point, we hex-edited the closed-source drivers to trick them into thinking our hypervisor was QEMU.

New rule: if something takes over 5 minutes to figure out, you should document it. I spent ~10 min figuring out how to SCP a file from a machine on fly.io. It takes extra time now, but your future self will thank you. Much easier than searching your bash history.

This quote from Fly.io's newsletter hits hard:

“To know it wasn't managed, you'd have to read the documentation, and for modern developers, documentation might as well be fine print.”

Doing up some interactive maps of #FlyIO and #TigrisData regions.

And, wow.... is Africa really offline or really underserved?

If teahouse takes off, I'm going to pay someone to implement orchestration for #FlyIO and #Tigris.

It's a lot simpler than other cloud platforms I've used, but it's still pretty easy to loose track of all the access tokens and service links you need.

We built an orchestrator from scratch. Here's why. - #flyio
