That said, it has problems maintaining uptime and lacks responsive technical support options. But if you’re a developer on a budget who is willing to work with some uptime issues, you could still get some good value out of Linode.
In conclusion, Linode is a powerful cloud computing company offering developers high-performance hosting infrastructure and additional services. While it has some issues with uptime and technical support options, it remains affordable for developers on a budget.
