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.

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.

Do you know what is the transfer bandwidth limit on these machines? Wondering if they can be used for setting up a wireguard node.

Ok thanks not bad! How much storage?

Hmm... Let me look.

Edit: each instance gets 50gb boot volume, I can log in and confirm if you like.
