I am a long time DO user. I am with them since their first YouTube ad. Anyone remembers "You have been coding like a beast..." ad? I have aggressively promoted them in my circle. But I love Ryan more. He helped me with my Rails chops. I am an Indiehacker and most of my projects are hosted with them. I don't bill much, around $200 a month but I am moving that business to Linode. Bye bye DO.
