I will use a VPS box as a substitute for a homeserver. I have realised that I do not need much power, and having a server in the cloud is easier for me overall. Hetzner and Contabo for my budget, and I'll look at Netcup. I'm also looking for a super cheap but reliable box to run headscale with. Overall, with a main VPS, a smaller VPS for headscale, and a small storage node, I'm looking to spend $15-$18 a month.
How is the verification process for Hetzner?
I think for verification I needed to send them photos of my provincial ID card (driver's license would be fine if you had one) and that was about it, but it's been long enough now that I don't quite remember clearly
