People mix them up all the time. Let's fix that in 30 seconds.
🌟 VPN — it's about traffic. Encrypts your connection, swaps the IP websites see. That's it.
💻
VPS
—
it's about a server. Your own isolated machine: CPU, RAM, disk, root access. Deploy whatever you want.
They don't replace each other. They work at different layers.
↳
Need safer Wi-Fi at a café —
VPN.
↳
Need to deploy a site or database —
VPS.
↳
Want to run your own VPN server —
then both.

A critical Linux kernel vulnerability known as Dirty Frag (CVE-2026-43284 / CVE-2026-43500) has been publicly disclosed and is currently being actively discussed across the Linux security community.
The vulnerability allows local privilege escalation to root and public exploit code is already available. Systems with shared access environments such as VPS hosting, shared hosting, CI/CD runners, containers, and multi-user systems are considered at higher risk.
The issue affects multiple major Linux distributions, including:
▎AlmaLinux
▎Rocky Linux
▎Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL)
▎CentOS Stream
▎Oracle Linux
▎Ubuntu
▎Debian
▎Fedora
▎SUSE / openSUSE
▎CloudLinux
▎AlmaLinux Status
All supported AlmaLinux releases are affected:
▎AlmaLinux 8
▎AlmaLinux 9
▎AlmaLinux 10
Patched kernels are already available through AlmaLinux testing repositories.
▎AlmaLinux 8: 4.18.0-553.123.2.el8_10+
▎AlmaLinux 9: 5.14.0-611.54.3.el9_7+
▎AlmaLinux 10: 6.12.0-124.55.2.el10_1+
We strongly recommend all customers to:
▎Update their kernel immediately
▎Reboot affected systems
▎Apply temporary mitigations if reboot is not currently possible
▎Review systems for suspicious activity

Here's the thing: none of them are wrong.
🧠 Nano, Vim, Neovim, VS Code, Geany, GNOME Text Editor, Sublime Text — they don't conflict because one is better. They conflict because they solve different workflows.

AlexHost is now ISO/IEC 27001:2023 certified.
It's the international standard for information security management — the same framework relied on by banks, governments, and global cloud providers.
Here's what that actually changes for you:
Certified by TÜV AUSTRIA.

It's the international standard for information security management — the same framework relied on by banks, governments, and global cloud providers.
Here's what that actually changes for you:
→ Faster procurement. Most enterprise security teams already accept ISO 27001 — less back-and-forth before you can deploy with us.
→ Easier GDPR alignment. ISO 27001 controls cover most of what your own data protection audit asks about — less work for your compliance team.
→ Documented processes, not promises. Access, backups, incident response — all written down and externally verified. You know what to expect before something goes wrong.
→ Continuous accountability. Re-audited every year, not signed once. The standard has to be maintained, not just claimed.

🦙 New guide: self-hosted Ollama on Ubuntu
You can install Ollama in 10 minutes. You can also spend the next two hours figuring out why nvidia-smi doesn't work, why the model loaded on CPU instead of GPU, and whether your local API is actually local.
We wrote a guide that converts those 2 hours in just 20 minutes.
Carousel has 5 takeaways. Full walkthrough👇

We wrote a guide that converts those 2 hours in just 20 minutes.
Inside:
→ driver verification before you touch Ollama
→ realistic VRAM math for one 16GB card
→ how to prove the inference is on GPU, not silently on CPU
→ what self-hosting actually changes
→ the local API security default you don't want to leave on
