Does anyone recommend a VPS to run Nextcloud? @selfhost

I convinced my brother to stop paying for Office Online and give us this money to use a self-hosted Nextcloud.

    Be extra vigilant with your backups though, free stuff always has a higher chance of weird stuff happening, once they just removed my VPS after my trial ended and told me to re-create it.

      Of course. Need to be extra cautious so you don’t get a surprise bill for your birthday.

      That’s what I liked more about Oracle as compared to AWS or GCP etc’, is that you need to manually upgrade your account to paid account. and if u don’t then you just can’t create another machine or another block storage.

      But still it’s extremely important to read every word so you know what you’re getting yourself into.
