Low-spec but stable VPS?
I'm looking for VPS with these requirements:
Somewhere in EU, KVM, IPv4, ~512MB RAM, 5-10GB disk, low traffic, annual payment. By "stable" I mean not changing IP-address every month, like one unnamed (once good and today terrible) provider does! On the other hand, interruptions and/or restarts are not problem...
I'd like to use it as my master-dns, and changing its IP means I have to create new zone-files, new keys, sign zones, upload dnssec-keys to upstream-dns using my registrar's web, etc. All manual work, and I'm sick of doing it again and again. This should be VPS I set up once and then forget about it, till there is major OS-update...

vultr
eh
Not to be negative but if you really value your time don't pick any half a year old LET provider, just don't.
Vultr was suggested by @Hxxx, it's a good suggestion.
Agreeding with emgh, Vultr, Linode, DO are all excellent options for a stable VPS.
For sure they are one of the biggest providers, add UpCloud. Especially DO and Linode (Akamai). But Linode & UpCloud don't have someting like 512MB RAM, 5-10GB storage anymore, except DO and Vultr i believe still have.
That’s the tradeoff between stability and price. Many LET providers lease IP addresses from third parties or use their upstreams’, in this case address could change. Larger providers use their own assets so it’s more stable. DO/Vultr’s 512MB plans are quite expensive according to LET standards IMO.
Scaleway Stardust is super cheap if you can do IPv6 only, or use some tunnel for IPv4. No SLA agreement, but should be fine for hobbyist projects.

If you have Russian rubles and you want to burn the, use your VPS plan Pluto in Frankfurt, Germany, bro!

And we don't have any plans to change IP address.
If you do not have Russian rubles you may pay by your VISA card issued in your country but unfortunately processing company fee will be added and it is big enough.

Hetzner? OVH?
These two not only big, they owned and managed DC.
Actually is/was a solid service, until it was price hiked from 129RUB.
Close to 3€ is pricey for 512MB, plus right now you need actually a russian issued master or visa card to pay that price otherwise you pay more on top.
Thank you for your comment! We acknowledge that, at present, payments in USD or Euro is higher than those in Russian rubles. Nevertheless, we are actively addressing this issue and are confident that we will resolve it soon.
How about Linode, DO and Vultr?
IDK about whether they own a DC or not, but for sure they are among the biggest cloud providers.
Vultr own their NJ datacenter, all other locations offered by these three providers are colocated AFAIK.
No wonder Hetzner and OVH are much cheaper than others. @febryanvaldo
Source? Never though they owned a single.
So you own every IP allocated to clients?
I’ve heard they were here but I have no source and I don’t know:
https://www.qtsdatacenters.com/data-centers/piscataway
Their logo is listed there too.
Don’t think they own any DC.
I'm using GreenCloud, for $15/year various EU locations have:
The price is recurring and in yearly payments. I've been using them for about 8 months to date, with only 20 minutes of downtime in total. Never got an IP randomly change. This offer only appears on your dashboard after you create an account.
Just checked, yes seems this is true. They do not own their NJ location. Thanks for correcting!
We don’t own every IP address of our range but we don’t mess up, so done a few times migration of nodes to new hardware and the option to move of IPs is available so customers had exactly the same IPv4 addresses. The same option I do believe available with other providers unless provider change the datacentres.
Are they good? they're registered in Delaware.
These are my own stats collected with Munin; running on this VPS I have about 20 nodejs processes, a MariaDB database, nginx and other stuff. So far all has been good to me in their UK datacenter.

Edit: I noticed that you're also looking for a US provider. I've been keeping an eye on EthernetServers, they offer VPS'es around the US at the lowest prices and they don't seem to have collected complaints from users, but I haven't personally tried them. They are not in the EU thought. I went with Greencloud because I needed servers in Europe.
You’re mistaken but it’s fine.
Since you don’t own it, you can’t claim that any client will keep it.
You can’t even claim that you as a company will keep it.
Did I mentioned anywhere that customers can keep it? I mentioned that if we do migrate to different hardware customers allocated IP addresses are not changing to new ones like with certain providers on LET ( these providers do have excuses like example: oh, it’s new AMD processor on nodes so new IPs allocated or some other BS excuse)
No, in your original message hardware was not mentioned. You just claimed that you never change IPs, and I just said that you can’t say that because their not yours so it’s not up to you.
