Now i am using this cli based vps provider shellbox like raindog mentioned on lowendbox. https://lowendbox.com/?s=shellbox
Their intface is way more the old skool way of the samurai in server computing than using all those chaotic over the top gui frontends/clients/apps with its own mumbo jumbo jargon which you probably will never use anyway.

This will be all the training you need 5 lines. No need to listen to hour long zoom presentations from google/aws/oracle/azure certified engineers talking in thick eastern europe/asian accent english for just firing up a frickin box.

all documentation in: ssh shellbox help.

my short how to;
1. create a vps. [ssh shellbox.dev create mynewbox x1] x1=1c1g,x2=2c2g etc...
2. stop a vps. [ssh shellbox.dev stop mynewbox]
3. duplicate a vps. [ssh shellbox.dev duplicate mynewbox newthrashbox]
4. destroy a vps. ssh shellbox.dev delete mytrashbox
5. list all vps -> ssh shellbox.dev list

even billing is done via your shell account.

I worked on hyperv/vmware/kvm/docker/podman but this is way easier. Also no clients to install, just use your ssh client.

Note i think they have only one ubuntu image. that is a down side. I dont need more anyway. Just install the apt you need.
