I run the RBlind.com Lemmy instance at Accuris Hosting. Decent Virtual Machines, easy IPV6 support, and everything works fine. Prices are a bit on the high end, but it’s worth it to me to use a provider located in my country, where I understand all of the associated laws and can pay in my own currency via my local bank. Also, I’d rather not give money to big tech if I can help it, and support local business instead. This isn’t sponsored or anything, I’m just a mostly contented customer.
Also, of course, the fact that the control panel is screen-reader accessible is super important to me, though I doubt anyone else cares. But unfortunately that’s not yet the case with most of the larger cloud providers like AWS. And if they do deploy an inaccessible update, the company is small enough that I can send an email and get an answer from a human who has actually read what I wrote, rather than a corporate AI.
Opalstack is always a great starting place.
It honestly really depends what your needs are. This is a bit like asking what the best car is. A Ferrari is nice and fast, but wouldn’t be great for a dumpster hauling service. What platform(s) or tech stack are you planning on running?
It depends on how much cpu power, disk space, ram, side databases, backup space, etc. you need. Once you know all of it, just compare prices. Check also hetzner, scaleway, vultr, digital ocean, ovh. Good luck 🤞
