Are there any good VPS companies in Europe worth looking into other than Hetzner?
@julia OVHcloud? Someone also recommended GreenCloud

@Cyborus I live in the US
@julia thats why it was a joke ๐Ÿ‘

@julia

netcup has the best price to performance
contabo is there
ovh (they are french)

@gabboman @julia seconding ovh
avoid the vps on "local zones" tho because email hell
@julia I do quite like the service that UpCloud provides, although uhh certainly not the cheapest (basically DigitalOcean prices) and understandably controversial on fedi

I've also heard good things about Netcup which is a lot cheaper, although they don't seem to provide many things around their VPSes (no backup system)
@LivingCooki @julia they have backups, you just have to take snapshots manually
@freya @julia oh that's nice, I thought they didn't have anything
@julia upcloud exists
they are good in a way that experience is good but they are EXPENSIVE

@MarkAssPandi @julia also the infrastructure below is mostly sound

And if you ping them on fedi, they surely help out with some start credits

(... Side note: it would be me on their fedi)

@julia ovh is alright

i use pulseheberg, they french
@julia i'm all in for OVH tbh, never had an issue with them (and they are quite reasonably priced)
@julia girlthi.ng runs on netcup because they're REALLY affordable but they have like zero ways to integrate and automate on top of them
@thermia @julia Netcup is the Temu of VPSes kinda
@natty @thermia @julia no downtime in an entire year though, it'd be longer if i didn't intentionally ignore an invoice for 2 months leading to them suspending my vps
@natty @thermia @julia naah, is it? i run n8n on it with no issues, and it's well-priced i think
@natty @julia @thermia hetzner on the other hand didn't let me (us) even get a VPS, they banned the account even though I (we) provided sufficient verification details
@julia ovh is okay, sometimes you can get good deals but their shit is always half broken

(i do have an ovh vps but i actually think i dont have anything running on it rn lol)
@julia ovh is okay from my experience
@julia we just migrated to netcup, aside from a couple of hiccups with initial server config it seems to be working well
@julia i see that nobody has yet mentioned Scaleway
@julia i have been using mythic beasts https://www.mythic-beasts.com/support/servers/virtual/plans for years. they're very hands off, very reliable, never had a problem in 4-5 years of continuous use.
