    My vps is operated by an EU company, running on hardware in Montreal, powered entirely by Quebec’s abundant hydroelectric grid. EU Canada all the way.

      OVH? I have a dedicated server with them that has been running for nearly a decade. I also worked at their old office in Montreal as a customer advocate and visited the datacenter in Beauharnois. It was impressive and it must have grown quite a lot in a decade. Even back then they were trying to get the government to host its data with them.

      Unfortunately they also raised their prices recently.

        Yes, good guess. I do expect everyone to raise prices owing to the cost of ram and other hardware.

          I was expecting the price of VPS and dedicated servers to go up but unless the IP shortage suddenly got much worse, I was not expecting these to go up too. My dedicated server still costs the same as last month, as opposed to a VPS, but I paid $16 more last month just for the same amount IPs I had before.
