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.

    To verify only a single account per person, Oracle asks you to put your credit card and will test it with a small transaction. Subscribing from here https://www.oracle.com/it/cloud/free/

    My bank refuses to let the transaction trough, as its an unknown company to them. And apparently it doesn’t even reach their systems when I call them on the phone, but it reaches the bank’s mobile app that will ask me if I confirm the transaction. The app will show Declined even if I accept it. It doesn’t do this with other services, only and exclusively the test transaction of Oracle.

    In the end I opted for something else.

      Huh very weird, never had a payment refused because a company is “unknown” (especially for something as big as ORACLE). I’d call the bank, but maybe the hassle is not worth it

        I got said that when I called, every time I called. Alway tried unlocking the validation. “Wait a week”, a week passed and more and nothing happened
