    I left MT a while back. I switched everything to a Digital Ocean server, running Serverpilot.io.

    Pros:
    - Way faster than MT. I have an agency that I work for, and I'll build on my server, then launch on their MT server. The performance hit is noticeable and significant.
    - Cheaper.

    Cons:
    - Not quite as user-friendly.
    - You're on your own a bit more than MT.
    - No email

    • What's the main advantage of serverpilot?reanimate
    • Serverpilot is going to handle installing all your software on Digital Ocean. PHP, Apache, MySQL, Ngnix, etc.noneck
    • Then you do all your admin through serverpilot (adding sites, etc).noneck
    • I never got why people fall into these traps. We use cPanel and Plesk for years and i can just laugh on these magical "server tools" and "control panels".sted
    • You use cPanel and Plesk, and "laugh on these magical...control panels"? WTF do you think cPanel and Plesk are?noneck
    • Also, having used cPanel and Plesk, I can say that they're both horseshit.noneck
    • eh? how come?
      cPanel is.. well, it just works.

    • noneck ok. I was talking about the custom control panels. exactly why are they horseshit?sted
    • honestly I think cpanel and plesk are very user friendlydbloc
    • is there any better alternative? plesk onyx is really smart and i know from experience that ppl used to fuck it up at the setup by choosing the wrong interface.sted
