I am using Upcloud for private discourse forum. It’s a bit on expensive side. Would like to move either to alphaVPS or OVH and host an Lemmy instance. Asking kindly if anyone has anything to say about either alphaVPS or OVH?

Merry Christmas & Happy New Year!!!

    Do you need DDoS protection? If not don’t get it, most providers are quite shady and most attacks (anecdotal) aren’t super high volume or especially advanced. If your income doesn’t depend on availability you can even just ignore attacks until they find something else to do. I only have experience with european and especially german hosters, idk if that helps depending on where you are from, you might want to find something more local.
