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.

Oracle have a great free tier. For free (not a trial, but forever free), you can get a virtual machine with 24gb RAM, and storage of 200gb. you might wanna consider that.

If you do choose to use oracle, I'll note you that you do need a credit card, tho it'll not be charged unless you manually upgrade your account to paid account.

I'm not advertising them, I just really think they're great and I'm using it myself.

If all you want is Nextcloud, you are probably better off getting a managed service like this: https://www.hetzner.com/storage/storage-share/

Agreed. Not much more expensive than a VPS and saves you a lot of headaches.

Linode, Digital Ocean. I've worked with both in the past, but that was years ago so I don't know how things are now.

I've been at Contabo for years before moving my server home, was always happy with them. Just for something like Nextcloud you want a lot of storage space which gets expensive fast with a VPS...
