Presearch: Node Operator Reward Jan 2022

This month I earned 67 PRE for running nodes. ($15😨😨😨)
This is the first full month that I got rewards for running 2 nodes.
I have been using google cloud and added free oracle cloud last month.
Surprisingly, oracle server has been doing well...even though the cloud server is the cheapest crap... but it is free forever so I don't care about the server stats. I was more interested in PRE Nodes stats.

This is my google server stats

This is my oracle server stats

Reliability Score is 83 so it is little bit lower than the google cloud. Google cloud server is 86 and it's pretty stable. Sometimes it goes up 1 point or goes down 1 point but it doesn't fluctuate much.
On the other hand, oracle server is not that stable. Sometime the Reliability Score goes below 70... and I get a lot less request on this server.

I have one more free oracle server so I wanted to replace google server, but I won't do that for now...

I have been told so many times from different people that running multiple nodes are better than one node.
I am not sure if that is true.
I did a little better with 2 nodes this month but the difference is very small.

I have done a lot better last year when I was just running one node. So I am really not sure.

All I can say is that running PRE node is not profitable at all.
It is definitely stupid if you are running multiple cloud nodes and paying for the servers.
If they are free... of course running pre node isn't bad. It is just that you can't expect much reward.
