Options for cloud hosted Lemmy server? (lemmy.fmhy.ml)

I feel like this is at least tangentially connected to self hosting, so I'm asking here. I'm interested in finding a cloud provider to host my own Lemmy server (similar to what Masto.host does with Mastodon). I've been looking around for all the different options available, and I haven't found many. Communick.com and elest.io are the ones I've found. I'm wondering if anyone has any experience with either of these, or if anyone has any other recommendations to consider.

I just set one up over the weekend using a VPS from cloudfanatic.net and a domain through cloudflare. Haven't opened it up to the public yet so I can't say how it would hold up for multiple users but I've only invested about $40 for a year of service so it's not a major hardship if it doesn't work out.
