Manual

Uberspace is a hosting platform targeted at people who want to look behind the scenes, do things we didn’t anticipate and generally prefer working with a text-based console.

Our objective is to not only host the content you’d like to see on the web, but also to introduce you to Linux and basic shell usage.

Uberspace 8 is currently in the public beta phase. We're working on feature parity with Uberspace 7 but are not quite there yet.

Current Release: v8.0.91 - 2026-08-18

Added:

  • You can now create additional Postgres databases.
  • We provide and enable PostGIS for all Postgres databases.
  • We added stress and stress-ng.
  • We now provide different python versions.

Changed:

  • uberspace command: we sorted the name space, from uberspace tool version php to uberspace tool php version for more consistency and room for future tools.

Fixed:

  • We treat Asteroids that are created with a user with already paid Asteroids now as payed, no more limits like in trial period.
  • (Hopefully) no more time outs with the uberspace command.

Why is my version higher?

Sometimes the version shown on your host may be higher than the newest version listed here. This usually means we have applied minor internal adjustments or hotfixes shortly after a release that do not directly impact user functionality. Such updates are not always included in this changelog.
