  If you are ok with NAT, you can try @AK_KWH they have NAT machines in Johannesburg for under $10/y.

  Thank you!

  I haven't tested that many actually:

  • 🇳🇬 @HostDoc https://sitehub.agency/ - AS214354
  • 🇦🇴 https://elende.ao (please go with KVM if you do, LXC was not great) - AS329007
  • 🇿🇦(maybe 🇪🇬) @MAXKO_Hosting https://www.maxko-hosting.com/ - AS329325
  • 🇿🇦🇳🇬🇬🇭🇰🇪 https://www.hostafrica.com/ - AS328364

  And untested (but i have a feeling it will be good):

  • 🇿🇦 @Zappie https://zappiehost.com/ - AS61138

  Untested (and I have no feelings):

  • 🇳🇬 @NexOasis https://www.melbicom.net/ - AS8849
  • 🇳🇬 @SurferCloud https://www.surfercloud.com/ - AS142002
  • 🇳🇬🇿🇦 @aveline https://misaka.io - AS35487
  • 🇲🇺 https://cloud.mu - AS328699

  Within your budget of $5/mo probably only @HostDoc and only if you ask him politely for a discount

  Are you a customer as well?

  edit:
  Oh and in South America (🇨🇱) @jfrac is definitely my recommendation, but I think we talked about it in other thread already

  Thanks for the plug!

  We can offer VPS in two locations in South Africa. We have an active yearly discount promo, but I can't post links as we don't have a member tag :-P

  Yeah that's tough.
  If I'm being honest, it is currently the most expensive of my 50+ VPS servers at $7.67/m (paid annually).

  Just a warning: They limit you to no more than 25% average CPU usage from the hypervisor's perspective (so in reality, closer to 15%), which can be crippling if you only have a single core, especially when it's a 2.1 GHz Xeon Silver. That aside, I highly recommend them if that doesn't matter for the intended workload.

  IPInfo says it's really in ZA and I get <2ms ping to Teraco JB1 in Johannesburg from my VPS with them, so I'll trust it.

  Not really what i meant. I heard some unconfirmed rumors they might be opening in Egypt in the future. For now it's only in South Africa, true.

  I don't recall when was the last downtime of sitehub ( @HostDoc ), but it was planned maintenance with notice a 2 weeks before. It was the only noticeable outage during the whole year I have service with them.

  elende was a bit worse but also surprisingly stable given the region they're operating in.

  Oh wow!
  I just checked. The 30th of this month will be exactly one year. It has been a pleasure.
