VZ Type:
Any
Number of Cores: 1 or 2

Disk Type: nvme preferred but regular ssd is OK
Bandwidth: 1TB

Number of IPs: 1
Location: Los Angeles, Seattle, Chicago. Somewhere close to the province of Alberta (Canada)
Budget: $10.00/month

Hello , we are not from USA ,we are from EU , but we accepted this type of websites https://panel.ihostart.com/index.php?rp=/store/vps-kvm-ssd , we hosted kiwifarms and others so no any problem for free speeach websites , i m checked you posts and it s fine for us
Regards
IncogNET is worth a shot. They have a location in Liberty Lake, Washington which should have decent connectivity and low latency to Canada.
They openly support free speech, host some very controversial sites that have attracted a lot of attention from angry mobs (such as Kiwi Farms) and require no personally identifiable information, and the owner (@MannDude) is active on this site. There is no stock at the moment though, so you'll have to wait.

You're already with @crunchbits. What's wrong?
I'm experiencing high and unpredictable IOWAIT times, I've contacted support but no resolution was found.
I've experienced trouble with WordPress plugins causing performance problems, but not like this.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but high disk wait time is an indication that are many other VPSs on the same machine doing high read/write tasks?
The irony of asking for a "first amendment VPS" while being based in Canada...
Have you checked out BuyVM's US locations?
@Francisco
Check out my plans, 3GB and up is discounted at 30% on the checkout page so 3GB RAM is $10.50 USD, and it should stack with billing term discounts. But if you need to stick to the budget I could reduce it. All NVMe storage, unmetered bandwidth, DDoS protection.

Also have some specials that are at your budget that have higher memory.

If the posts you shared are accurate representations of what is posted, this is literally nothing and any company with a lick of sense would have no problem hosting you.
Edit: If you need something more ideal DM me.
Yeah, the only element that would make a difference would be if he wanted anonymity/crypto, but based on the blog's use of gmail, I don't think that's a big concern for him.
It's not lost on me.
I actually had some of the same problems as I do now, but that was 10 years ago and I was hosting a game server. I'll consider them again.
Thanks
Yes, we'd cover this just fine if the OP is interested.

Like what MikeA, based off of the posts you linked. It is honestly not that bad. Therefore there should be plenty of hosts that could help you with this.
True, but might be worth distinguishing which hosts would just keep the blog up as long as it flew under the radar, vs. those who would keep it up even under pressure or scrutiny from, say, activists.
The big players (DigitalOcean, OVH, Hetzner et cetera) will generally bend over when pressured enough by angry mobs on Twitter. Most companies only care about PR and not about protecting fully legal speech/unpopular opinions expressed respectfully these days, unfortunately.
KVM Standard XS: 4 vCPU / 8GB RAM / 60GB NVMe / 5TB Bandwidth for $6.99/month

We have availability in Los Angeles, but if you need mitigation, then we would recommend our Secaucus, NJ or Miami, FL locations.
Or blue haired staffers screeching.

Yeah, it's kinda crazy how absurdly colored hair went from being a staple of people who'd go out of their way to disregard any kind of norm and be as offensive as possible to be a telltale sign of intolerant and vindictive morons.
Intolerant and vindictive morons who think they're part of some edgy counterculture
Just like those internet "anarchists" who constantly preach abolishing the government while calling for the imposition of "hate speech" laws and calling the police when someone says something offensive on the internet. They're a bunch of hypocrites who are trying to look "cool" and think that their keyboard warriorism makes them morally superior to others who don't care about the latest idpol garbage
Is it really a surprise that such "anarchists" fail to adhere to even the most basic principles of anarchism, considering that they can't define what a woman is, either?
How about @MannDude?
.
Thanks for suggesting us.
This is our bread and butter. Depending on what you need we may have stock.
We offer this in NL and Estonia
I have been out of the office, but if you could DM me your ticket number I'd love to personally take a look into this for you.
Regarding high IO wait: potentially it's that, but in our situation it's almost certainly likely an array that is potentially having some disk issues that are not yet triggering a failure alert but causing performance issues--assuming there is a hypervisor issue and not something specific to your deployment/config. We can verify that very quickly on the hypervisor to narrow down the scope (if it wasn't done already).
With that said, I'd still point you to @MannDude as it really is directly what he provides.

Thank you everyone for your recommendations and offers. It's been just over two days now that the issue has stopped completely. I will continue to monitor, and should anything change I will re-consider your offers.
I'm glad there's a good selection of 1st amendment VPS providers, as the only way to counter deception is with a healthy dose of the truth and further uncensored discussion.
Sorry for bumping, but I don't think that any provider hosted in a democratic country will take down your website, but you can try Luxembourg (BuyVM) if you're afraid of censorship, your content seems OK
Yeh. This is really helpful after buyvm has already given 👍. Are you simply spamming the forum with random topics / comments to meet the post threshold ?
I will analyze your comment with my personal team of coaches, thanks for your feedback, Mr Plumberg.
Sure seems like it. ArkPlr's comment history seems a little...botty.
I'm not a native speaker, already explained that.
