We had many bad experiences with Vultr. They often had internal network issues, causing our site performance to suffer, and sometimes timeout.

The thing with Vultr is that the whole location may be down during maintenance, so I am forced to switch to a far away location in order to keep

I created two Vultr VMs few months back. Since then one of those has been rebooted quite a lot. And it always comes with some downtime.

In this case, the area in question is what Vultr calls "New Jersey" and Digital Ocean calls "NYC3". Total downtime was about 3 minutes.

In my experience, all 3 are very reliable: zero downtime since I started using them 8 months ago. Vultr has the nicest dashboard: it uses the noVNC HTML5 client

What is Social Noise?

Social Noise is our real-time feed of what people are publicly saying about web hosting companies across X (Twitter), Reddit, Instagram, TikTok, and other social platforms. We surface genuine user opinions, the good, the bad, and the ugly, so you can see unfiltered feedback before choosing a host.

How do you collect these mentions?

We use automated search tools to monitor social media platforms for posts mentioning hosting companies in our directory. Each mention is classified by sentiment (good, bad, or mixed) and linked back to the original post and the host's profile on Hostlist.

How is sentiment determined?

Each mention is read for its overall meaning, not just for negative or positive keywords, and classified as Good (a positive experience or recommendation, even one that mentions a past problem but concludes satisfied), Bad (a genuine complaint or negative experience), or Mixed/Ugly (a nuanced take with real pros and cons). Posts from a host's own account, and promotional or affiliate copy, are excluded entirely rather than scored.

How often is Social Noise updated?

Social Noise is refreshed daily. We scan for new mentions across all monitored platforms every 24 hours and add them to the feed. The page itself revalidates every 2 minutes to show the latest data.

Can I filter by platform or sentiment?

Yes. Use the filter pills at the top to narrow by platform (X, Instagram, TikTok, Other) or sentiment (Good, Bad, Mixed). Filters can be combined to see, for example, only negative mentions on X.
