I’m looking to learn more by using a VPS and spinning up a few instances. Can anyone recommend a cheaper VPS service?

Please let me know if it would be better to post this in a different community. TYIA

    I generally use Digital Ocean, but I was also informed recently that Hetzner has new US datacenters, which would significantly lower latency for me. Might be something to look into in the future.

    I’d recommend giving Hetzner a look, they’re similar to Linode/Digital Ocean/etc., but they’re a bit cheaper. They’re a European company, but they’ve recently added a couple North American locations.

    Another vote for Hetzner Cloud, if you don’t mind it being in Germany, you can get even more memory and other specs on their ARM based ones. It does has pretty cheap backups and has DDoS protection and some basic firewall stuff built in all their VPSes.
