Maybe a VPS NAT bundle for a (low vol) scraping project. And perhaps one for a proxy in a fresh jurisdiction. UK blocking imgur and stuff kinda annoyed me. Currently using Germany but not convinced that's gonna hold long term. Question is where...needs to be reasonably close to UK yet outside EU.
Probably bunny.net credits...they sometimes do +25%. And renew mxroute ancient BF...though don't really use it lol

VDS with 10+GB RAM, 100+GB disk, as many fast cores as possible (not ten year old xeon shit), for ~$15/month. (I'd do $25 but I need cores more than I need RAM, 32GB is a waste for me)
You are in the wrong community. Those specs are not LowEnd...
I want good specs for lowend price
$15 or $25 per month is over the offer limit of $7/month for general offers... Unless it is a special offer... in which case, the prices can be $1,073,741,824 for all anyone cares...
(No, that number isn't specific. You are just unfamiliar with other number systems)
VDS isn't a VPS, limit for dedis is $99/mo which I assume also applies to VDSes since a VDS is closer to a dedi than to a VPS.

VDS (Virtual Dedicated Server) is basically just a KVM VPS with (supposedly) dedicated resources.
Many hosting companies use "VDS" and "VPS" interchangeably for marketing since "VDS" just sounds fancier.
In theory, a VDS should have dedicated CPU cores, RAM, and possibly disk I/O, so your performance isn’t affected by others on the same node.
So if I have an 8-core, 32 GB RAM dedicated server, I could split it into 2x 4-core, 16 GB VDS instances, each with fully reserved resources.
However, nothing actually stops someone from splitting that same server into 8x 4-core, 16 GB "VDS" and selling them as "dedicated" either.
Unless you have access to the underlying hardware or know exactly who else is hosted on that node, a VDS is, for all practical purposes… still a KVM or Hyper-V VPS.

Ideally, I’d like to consolidate some of my VPSes into one dedicated server. The issue is that I’m worried about violating any ToS or FUP due to excessive CPU usage, so I’m looking to move those services to a dedi to avoid that. Hopefully, OVH does another round of KS-Mysterys soon.
I'm considering the same, the problem I'm seeing with this plan is dedis are way more expensive than my lowend VPSs. I'm at around $120/yr with my current VPSs and the cheapest dedi I've seen is kimsufi at $20/mo. Hoping for some BF deals.
I'd like to add some VPS in Africa and South America to the fleet. Have been looking for servers in Kenya, Ghana and Tanzania today, but most providers from these countries seem to host their infrastructure in Europe and/or don't support IPv6.

Looking back in the events of last year, I noticed something interesting: some of the best offers were from @host_c provider from Romania, but over the past year they did not even try to capitalise on all that SEO. As an example HOST-C.com still has no website, not even a Romanian language version. I was expecting from them to grab some cheap open-source template and deploy it as a website containing some company information, some terms (hosting terms, cloud terms, AUP, privacy) and some offers to attract possible customers reading all the favourable reviews and benchmarks which recommended them so far. Instead, I still see no website one year later.
This intrigues me: @host_c - are you well mate? Another Black Friday is coming and you had quite some great reviews last year - you might want to take a couple of days and make a quick website. There are even plugins of Wordpress to fill it fast with data using AI. But then again, what do I know? I'm not operating a hosting business.

I want to migrate two of my "unicorn" VPS which has 2 core Ryzen processor (or a newer Intel CPU equivalent) with 3GB RAM and ~50GB storage priced at ~30 USD/y paid via crypto. My current host's uptime is currently not good at all.

Never make the same mistake twice. There are so many new ones to make.
It’s OK if you disagree with me. I can’t force you to be right.
Same spec and price in APAC and you earn your share in my wallet
The all seeing eye sees everything...
I would take that, as long as it's in one of the faster internet countries!
