My main use currently is a modded Minecraft server. But I want a VPS over one of those Minecraft host specifically because I plan on messing around with docker containers later and hosting my own Lemmy instance. Currently I have an openVZ server from TNA hosting because it was like $50 a year. But it’s not powerful enough for the Minecraft modpack.

So what VPS provider would you lot recommend?

    Oracle Free Tier. Works like a charm for me for 2 years. Really free, really working. No matter what shit company Oracle is.

      Just a PSA, never ever EVER request deletion of an Oracle free tier if there is any possibility you might want one in the future.

      You can delete/remove instances or whatever as you desire, but you won’t be able to get a second free tier account even if the first is completely deleted.

        24gb memory and 4 OCPU . the CPU doesnt sound like much, but if its using the ampere back end and not the amd micro, the CPU performance scales up with demand (to a point).

        I have two containers running, one using 16gb memory and another using 4gb, they each have one cpu and they perform fine for what they do.
