@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 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
