Not from our perspective, $10/month is the target for now.
I suspect 1GB VPS will eventually get down to $5/month anyway in a few years.
Yes. Mooreâs law and all that.
Thinking out of the box, a better investment for time spent could be negotiating a discount for Discourse admins or Meta members on some selected VPS provider. It could turn out to be much easier to shave 1-2$ of the price than to push resource requirements down.
Or people could go buy from OVH if theyâre so concerned about cost.
OVH has proven itself time and time again to be the #1 bargain-basement cloud server provider.

Wow, their 33.49$ plan comes with 8GB RAM and 4 cores 
. Has anyone been using OVH on the long run - are they reliable?
I have been extremely happy with Digital Oceanâs uptime during the last couple of years.
Does ovh support docker? I always thought it was openvz.
Yes. Now they use KVM and are a ârealâ cloud based on Openstack. You could try it for as little as $ 0.009 / hour (1 core 2 GB, $ 3.5 / month) but they require an upfront deposit of $ 40.
