Website hosters of Lemmy, which hosting service do you use and why? (infosec.pub)

I'm looking to host a website for an organisation I run. I'm very familiar with WordPress and somewhat familiar with Drupal, but am highly technical and can learn other technologies. I do feel that a WordPress-type crm might be overkill, as I am not looking for user interaction on the site. I'm good with html, js, and css, so would not be opposed to a barebones provider.

Basically, who is everyone using, and what considerations went into that decision?

I have crossposted this question on .ml, as well, but can't properly link each on the other.

I moved from TransIP to Hetzner. TransIP started costing me more than €40 for 2vCPU + 4GB RAM + 1.25TB extra storage. While this same product only cost me €23 years ago. So I decided to move to Hetzner because I could get a 2vCPU + 8GB + 1TB extra storage for only €21. Plus it also allows Tor bridge nodes, which was a must for me. After doing benchmarks to see if the Hetzner server wasn't shit, I came to the conclusion that it was almost 5 times faster. Awesome. I don't have too much experience with them yet, but on first glance I'm very happy.

Regarding software, I run Docker containers with different software. But the main service I'm running is a self made PHP website/webapp. I also use Grav for a blog, but I'm not too happy with it because I think it's convoluted.
