IHAQ

I've been having a little trouble with my installation of Known that I use to experiment with indieweb. More specifically, the hosting service doesn't offer FTP and can't show me logs "cause they're in Docker" or something. And while he is nice as pie and tries to be helpful, he also insists that FTP is a thing of the past, and that I should be learning spiffy modern new ways of working, like git, Docker etc etc.

I should add that the reason I first went with this host was that they could get an SSL cert (which Known requires) more easily than any of the other hosting providers at that stage. Now, with Let's Encrypt, that reason is gone, even if I do have to renew every 3 months.

I agree, I do need to become a little more up to date, but if I am going to do that, I may as well try to do it somewhere a little less opaque.

So, here's my question (at last): I use Gandi, Namecheap and Dreamhost to host dynamic sites at the moment (not counting 10C :)) and I suspect any one of them would do, but is there maybe another place you would recommend I try? Last time I looked at Linode it was a bit beyond me. Anywhere else?

Thanks.
