Exploring a VPS with mem 2GB

Recently, the number of VPSs being offered is less than 1GB of memory, or more than 4GB of memory, and I feel that there are few offerings of 2GB of memory.
I'm looking for a VPS with 2GB memory to build an Akkoma instance, so I'd like to get some good information about this. Main conditions;

  • Memory: 2GB (1.5GB is also OK)
  • Storage: 20GB or more (DB is used, so more is better)
  • Bandwidth: At least 1TB per month (since it's a SNS like Mastodon, the more the better)
  • Price: Less than $3 per month (Also take into account 3 or 6 months)

The following are the conditions I am looking for this time, but please comment and share any information that does not meet these requirements. (For those looking for the same):

  • OS: Compatible with Debian 12 (Debian 11 currently cannot install the latest Akkoma)
  • Server location: US, Canada/EU or Asia, etc. (assuming use from Japan)
  • IPv4 is provided (IPv6 only had problems with S3 access)
  • Payment method: PayPal accepted

Is there a VPS that meets your requirements? do you know that?

    I look here every day. Recently, I have subscribed to HostBrr IPv6. However, there was a problem with IPv6. RackNerd has published the ideal plan. But that's an annual plan. (I think I will sign this contract if I get $11.11 deposit...) So I decided to post and get some information.

  • It seems you have overlooked this description.

    Price: Less than $3 per month (Also take into account 3 or 6 months)

    Everything up to this point is an annual plan. Not so.

  • yoursunnyyoursunny Member, IPv6 Advocate

    Buy 1-year or 3-year plan.
    Use, but don't abuse.
    Put up in Service Transfer when no longer wanted.

  • Check out the Racknerd post, I bought a couple of small vps there today, used last year's Black Friday sale that's still going lol. It's 30gb SSD, 1cpu, 1.5gb ram for $17/year. That fits your budget perfect. They're using whmcs and solusvm and it's working very good, both orders provisioned within minutes of PayPal payment 😊

    Hello balloon San.

    Check this list for monthly providers under $2. Strato for EUR 2 looks good to me.
    https://lowend-deals.xbit.win/#vps-2m (some links are aff)

    I think you will have better options if you go for annual plans. Naranjatech is extremely good for your requirements for 18EUR/yr (refer above list).

    As sunny said above, you can transfer it after your use. Just make sure you select a host which has low transfer fees, or pick up a very limited time plan.

    For eg, Racknerd has plans available all the time and their transfer fees is $8 so you might have a tough time trying to transfer it since one can directly buy it from them.

    I already have several VPS contracts and can't afford it.

    I'm sorry. I recently signed up for your VPS, but due to an issue with my card, I had to cancel it. I need PayPal payment.

    I know that too and have already seen the list. There was no ideal plan.

    • Your budget is $3 per month.
    • Accepting offers for either 3 months or 6 months.

    In this case, people will propose offers like $18 (or less) per year.
    It's LowEndMathematics.

    However, these are too fixed to annual plans.
    If you offer or find a VPS that meets your criteria, please continue to comment.
