I've used gandi for about 10 years as well, but they lost me to porkbun with their recent not-so-well communicated price increases (including dropping the small free email mailboxes)
It works so well! I have my LMS server scrobble to maloja directly, multi-scrobbler for Spotify and even imported a Spotify data dump so I have my whole history in there.
If you have the technical aptitude for it, you can try to run an LLM locally. There is text-generation-webui that handles a lot of the dependencies, but it can still be a bit fiddly to set up. But then you can download any of the completely uncensored models and go to town! Models that fit on a single GPU are now surprisingly capable.
You could, but it probably wouldn't help much. The overhead for each additional Postgres server is minimal, the RAM usage comes from each database. It doesn't really matter if those are on the same postgres instance or on separate ones, in my experience.
So true, every few months I get the urge to ditch Synapse, but then I think about how much of a hassle it would be to migrate and happily pay a few bucks more for the extra RAM on the VPS. Don't be me, use Dendrite right from the start.

Basically what you buy in the auction is not the domain, but the permission to go run it at a registrar of your choice.
Another vote for Porkbun here, in my case using Cloudflare for my nameservers.
Soooo, they skipped being Extender and went straight to the Extinguisher phase?

Honestly this was one of the main reasons for me, I like using my domain as my key identity in a sense. Same for Gotosocial and Matrix.
Thought of that one immediately, it's so much fun and really easy to pick up!
Congratulations, you did the thing this meme is about!
The official website says it will be on gamepass from day one.
I was a bit weirded out by this as well, but honestly - it's pretty straightforward and has been working just fine for me. shrug
One more vote for Caddy, everything just works, simple things are simple but you have a lot of flexibility for more complex situations.
Hetzner is awesome, I've been using both their VMs and a Storage Box for my backups for years, never had any issues, reasonably priced as well!

Holy noly that's sone imtermet history right there!
I like pointing people to how they pronounce "Penelope", it's a similar thing. Although calling people with that name ~"Penny-Lobe" would be fun!

Also survivorship bias. A few old cars lasted for a really long time, but you don't see or think about the majority that didn't.
That "Nike" rhymes with "Bike".
