service stopped

ZeroHost is shutting down.
No outage. A decision.

After running this alone for over a month, I've decided to close ZeroHost. Nothing dramatic — just the moment to hand back the keys properly rather than keep a service running that I can't support well anymore.

Shutdown log
Jul 28 2026

Dashboard taken down done

The stable and beta dashboard instances are stopped. Hydrodactyl and Wings stay active underneath — that's what keeps your data accessible for now.

Aug 5 2026

Minecraft servers removed upcoming

Any Minecraft servers still hosted will be deleted on this date. Back up anything that matters before then.

Aug 11 2026

VPS shutdown final

The VPS is powered off. All remaining data — files, databases, configs, everything — is deleted with no way to recover it.

Data access until Aug 11, 2026

What's left for you to do

If you were already registered on ZeroHost, your data is still there. It won't be for long.

01

Log in to your panel and download all your files, backups and configs. The panel stays accessible to already-registered clients at panel.zero-host.org until Aug 11.

02

Export your databases if your project uses any. No backups will be kept after the VPS is shut down.

03

Find a new host before Aug 11. I recommend neoheberg.fr, where I now help out as staff.
