I currently use a Droplet from DigitalOcean which gives me 1 gb of RAM, 25 gb of storage and a bandwidth limit of 1 TB which is priced at 6 dollars per month, I think this might be a good offer, but I also think I'm overpaying because the only thing that I use from that is Wireguard to get around CGNAT at my home (which I could already do with Zerotier or Tailscale, so I don't always use it).

I do have a couple of docker containers as well, but the most important one being Pi-Hole is only used along with WG, I also expose some services to the internet, like Overseerr, Plex (only to 1 user) and most recently this, https://wefwef.app/posts/lemmy.world/all

Keeping within what DO already offers me would be nice, especially the bandwidth, which I some months got past of it because I opened the torrent port to seed more... I stopped when a DO letter arrived which is amusing because my country could not care less about torrenting. 🤣

I tried to go with the cheapest option ever (free) oracle cloud, but they never accepted any of my credit or debit cards nor they cared about it lol.

I don't think I'm a power user by any means, so please, if you have a better offer do tell, or maybe that price is fair for my usage?

EDIT: forgot to add that a public IPv4 address is a must, because you know, the CGNAT.

Fwiw racknerd still has their 2022 black Friday deals active. I just got 8 core 12 gb ram 100 gb SSD 12tb bandwidth for 161 annual (little over 13 a month). Just search it on Google. It's still live on their store site.
