Small VPS in Hong Kong / Singapore / nearby countries €2
Looking for a little VPS server to run a Lychee or similar web gallery (password protected).
Context: I have family members in China and I do not wish to share photos directly via WeChat (pictures of my kids), so looking to get a little VPS in the region for low latency reasons and setup a web gallery that they can use to view the selected images that I put up.
Requirements:
25 to 30 GB storage
1 to 2 vCPU
1 to 2 GB Ram
Only need a max of 1TB bandwidth
Location: HK, Singapore, nearby countries
Budget: preferably around €2/m, happy to pay annually to achieve this price
Let's see what you got!

AkileCloud has a cny 69.99 yearly plan.
But for your purpose, can you use iCloud to share?
We have this plan in Ho Chi Minh (Vietnam):
Price: A$40.8/yr ~ €25,37/yr
I can also work out something else for you. Feel free to DM if interested.

None of us uses iPhone, and the the cloud storage tools I use are blocked from my initial research (Google Drive / Dropbox / Box etc)
Akilecloud might be something, will have a look
OneDrive is accessible inside and outside China...which probably is the only accessible popular cloud...
Check our Black Friday special for Taiwan
*Republic of China
I could offer a storage box with access to Synology Drive. Then, you would have your own cloud environment, similar to Drive, Dropbox, etc. Multiple users are possible.
This only costs 50ct/100GB/mo
The server is located in The Netherlands, however. We have a relatively fast international internet connection with our Cogent uplink, so it should be very doable for sharing photo's. Feel free to send me a DM for a trail.

Is that true without VPN? This is the article that I found, it says it is limited by the great firewall.

The audience are older family members where even downloading a new app is a challenge, so VPN would be beyond the scope of what I want. Just want something they can click on or type into a browser, ya know?
It has been doing OK for me to use OneDrive. But if you want a one-click solution, then a HK VPS would be more ideal.
ROC and Taiwan are the same thing. And de facto independent.
Hello @cyanogenic,
1 GB RAM
2 vCPUs
25 GB Storage
Would that meet your requirements?

What's your price please?
