I am thinking of buying a VPS because I want to host some projects on it. I need it to be able to run Linux and must have a great amount of bandwidth (around ~150GB monthly). At least 2GB ram and 50GB Storage. What is your personal recommendation? And it would also be nice if it isn’t expensive.

I am somewhere around Germany.

Edit 1: Thanks to you all, I’ve decided to go with Hetzner as it was the best deal out of all and according to people recommending it, it has excellent uptime.

      I recently found out that a “client” of mine (not really a client, just some people I did a favor to) had a forgotten machine with more than 3 years of uptime on Hetzner. That’s quite the achievement!

      Edit: I might add, serving a Wordpress website, still working, unhacked despite minimal configuration. We only found out because MySQL crashed and the machine had to be rebooted.

      I am also using Hetzner Cloud. Pretty satisfied so far. They have reasonable prices for their products. Also, no complaints.

      When it comes to raw performance, DigitalOcean seems to be slightly better, but also much more expensive.

    I probably can’t help you since I assume you are not from the same country as me. I would recommend that you use a more or less local service, but in order for us to give good recommendations, you will probably have to tell us where you are located.

    I’m in Europe. Been using Vultr, it’s good. Now looking at Hetzner for better prices and a server that’s actually in my country.

    I mostly use Linode. Probably not the very cheapest, but they’ve never failed me.

    I’m using the free tier of oracle for a Minecraft server and for something free it’s really powerful (4 ocpus and 16Gb ram) although I think it might get revoked if the VPs is not used enough and I haven’t touched other things than ssh and serving minecraft

    I’ve been enjoying CyberGhost. It’s cheap (I paid a reasonable fee for 3 years) and you can use it on 7 devices.
