Virtual Private Server, a virtual machine with a hosting provider
What provider do you recommend? I’ve been looking for a VPS for playing around with some stuff that I can’t run on my OSX server.
Somebody mentioned Vultr. I’ll add Linode, Digital Ocean as the bigger players. Obviously, there’s the Cloud providers like AWS, Azure and GCP.
If you’re on a budget/looking for the best value, look at Contabo, Hetzner (bit of a pain now, their processes and uptime) and Racknerd special deals on Lowendbox (can’t beat this, but remember that you get what you pay for).
Vultr is good, IMO.
