It&rsquo;s definitely more pricey but I like the control and freedom that I have at my disposal. Thanks to a <a href="http://library.linode.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer">number of guides</a> and <a href="https://twitter.com/jol1hahn" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer">some help</a>, I was able to set up lighttpd and php-fpm to serve web pages, and Postfix+dovecot+amavisd-new for email.</p> <p>I haven&rsquo;t moved off a few services yet (including my primary mail), but I&rsquo;m rather satisfied at the moment.</p>
