Probably nitpicks, but I found a lot of the ones I came across charged an extra $50/year for a LetsEncrypt SSL cert which rubs me wrong since LetsEncrypt is free. A few others I found claimed to be Canadian and even had their offices in Canada but were ultimately American owned, which is a dealbreaker for me.
I do have a shortlist of a few, but I want to be thorough since whoever I pick I'll probably be with indefinitely.
I hadn't come across this one when I was searching around, thank you! They look cool!
I have considered this! And I used to back in the day! I haven't completely ruled it out, and I probably could cobble together a Frankenstein box, though I'm not sure the performance would be enough (the only extra MOBO/CPU I have is an ancient Core2Duo). Also, I wonder if the electricity cost would be more than $10/month. I should do some math..
This might be my choice. I'm going to do more reading.
