     @britt I've used Digital Ocean before. I hope it's not them. They have turnkey mastodon servers.

     Another option I've seen people like is OVHcloud.

     My server (serving PeerTube, Faircamp and jitsi-meet, a chat server) is currently in my living room on a 2GB line. I've been meaning to move it to a data center, and have looked at OVHcloud's pricing (mostly for dedicated hardware). Very reasonable.

     I have no recent experience with either.
