Btw, good point you made mentioning that physical/geo distance != "internet distance". I experienced a quite striking example myself when benchmarking a, I think it was Contabo, VPS

As you can see, YES the server is oversold, but at the same time the price/performance ratio is still much better than with contabo or similar providers, so if you are ok with that, this can be a grea

Contabo has 8 GB ram for €5, but they oversell a lot so there is a chance your vps is on a node with a lot of bad neighbors.

Contabo is good with good uptime unless you need to contact their support. Their customer support is the worst. You will always get just pre-defined reply, nothing more.

Unfortunate, quite some issues lately with Contabo. Straight after taking the 12 months offer too welp.

Because you can have an uptime of >450 days with Contabo before you get a 3 hours downtime while with other providers you cannot even get a 3 days uptime....

They ask not to contact support, they are aware of the issue. Next information update is scheduled for 17:00 UTC (so in two and a half hours....)
