Contabo לעומת Hetzner לעומת Linode לעומת Digital Ocean לאירוח Discourse מתחת ל-$30 לחודש

[Canapin (Coin-coin le Canapin)]

I’d be interested in others’ recent experiences for Discourse with these hosts.

I’ll quote myself about my Hetzner experience:

@Canapin

Hetzner has now Ampere ARM64 VPS. Discourse is compatible with this architecture.

The plans they propose make them cheaper than their regular Intel x86, especially in the lower plans.

(didn’t test it yet, but will do)

@Canapin

Their prices omit VAT by default on their website.

They increased all their prices from 10% last year.

A friend and I have been using Hetzner for 3 years, and we haven’t seen any downsides. We’re very satisfied. They have good prices, but not low enough to believe they would be overselling or pretending to have higher specs than they provide.
The servers are also paid per hour, which makes them great when you need to test stuff for just a few hours to a few days.
They originally had servers only in Europe (Germany and Finland). They added the USA one or two years ago for some of their servers. The ARM64 servers are, however, only located in Germany.
