Right now I am on an unmanaged VPS that way I can run my discord bots 24/7. I pre-paid until 3/2024 for the package I have. After that I'm either switching to reseller hosting and running my bots on my computer directly or my husband may make a dedicated server from scratch that I will use.

What about you?
 
Shared hosting for us. Since we're still a somewhat small community, I don't think we need anything fancy. I actually use shared hosting for most of my projects since it's usually good enough.

What discord bots did you create by the way @DudeThatsErin ?
 
If I'm not mistaken, I use shared hosting on Namecheap.com. I did the most basic hosting package since my website is new, but as it grows I will upgrade my hosting as needed.
 
Shared hosting here with KnownHost. Whatever my requirements, I will stay with them forever. Top tier.
 
Just shared for now but I've considered upgrading to something else so I can run a Gitea instance and Pokemon Showdown server alongside my website.
Currently I can achieve hosting those on a spare desktop I have and adding the IP to my sites DNS, but it would certainly be a lot easier to have it all run off the 1 machine.
 
Discussion Hub is still currently on shared hosting. :)
