Thanks for the info. You may be right about the downvote reason (though it's a pretty ridiculous reason), but I don't think that matters since they are in the same industry providing a similar service and there's no reason why GCP can't provide the same service as Vultr, especially since they charge a lot more for their instances than Vultr does.


Downvotes here on HN often don't make sense. You can be exactly 100% correct about something and still get downvoted to hell.

The best thing to do is to simply ignore them as asking about downvotes just invites more of them.


Well, I don't really care about the precious internet points disappearing. I'd much rather hear from someone what their reasoning is since I might actually learn something.

But it is telling that there have been at least 5 downvotes but no one is willing to comment as to why.

Edit: since I see you have a downvote (surprise, surprise) I'll clarify that it wasn't me.


Your new downvotes may be because HN guidelines say not to ask about or discuss downvotes.


What is this? Fightclub? "Rule #1 of fightclub: You never talk about fight club" :D

Seems like a recipe for breeding unfairness. "Don't talk about the system", :sigh:


It just generates a bunch of unnecessary comments in a thread. There's already like 8 in this chain for example.
