Especially when the article suggests to "subscribe to Pinggy Pro", which is $5/month (currently $2.50/month on sale). Pretty sure that's more than the cheapest VPS on Hetzner.
This seems like paying more upfront and paying more per month for less.

I'm rocking a two node cluster in Hetzner. One is an old 1vCPU small that costs over $3/month, and the other is a new 2vCPU addition that is a dash over $4.
I pay for two ipv4 external IPs which costs more.
Also, Hetzner started to offer ARM64 nodes that are even cheaper.
Yes, Pinggy Pro is more expensive than operating your own nodes in Hetzner.
