Vultr vs DO for discourse

please share your expert advise on choosing between DO & Vultr. I am on DO, with 2gb RAM, 12$ plan, smtp has been a major issue. I can’t move ahead. Googling shows vultr is competetive, not sure about smtp issue.. how are your experiences, server needs to be down here in australasia.

Not directly answering your question, I have been very happy with AWS Lightsail.

ye, heard that, and they have their email service for smtp as well. is it easy to install discourse…

doesn’t matter what cloud host you use, none will work if you can’t figure out how to properly edit a yaml file and follow directions when people try to help you with it.
