If their new pricing model suits you and you do not have a problem with the 100 clients limit and paying $0.20 for each client after the 100, then you can use it. I dunno what you mean if there is any 'better version of it', as cPanel can only be distributed from the official source (I haven't seen any nulled versions), however I would recommend you choose another panel that can be more reliable than cPanel is such as DirectAdmin or Plesk. (I still consider Plesk a safe option even though they are funded by the same company, and consider cPanel unreliable because they suddenly increased prices and enforced limits without warning or a reason to do that).

After the cPanel price hike and limit to 100 customers only on their best plan (you have to pay $0.20 for each customer after 100), I would choose Plesk. Plesk still seems safe. VestaCP is good when you are a client, but it doesn't have many features for the seller. I agree that it is nice. I have also used ISPConfig (as a free panel) and it was nice.

Personally, I prefer Netflix. Might be because the cinema in my area doesn't have many movies, but I really enjoy watching movies and series on Netflix.

In my opinion, IPS is better than MyBB. It has nicer skins, it's easier to customise (at least for me) and support for it is better than support for MyBB (as I have experienced it).

I don't think there is any other option. I tried on my own forum and searched the Internet, but I couldn't find another way. If you are okay with it, can you please tell me why you want to avoid the plugin?

Did you have more posts before? If so, where did they go? I am wondering because I am new to this forum and I don't know, do posts get deleted after some inactivity period?

Nice to hear, welcome back! Where did your other posts go?
