Could you list anything specific?

It's obvious that you will want to get a better provider when your needs scale up. But for the specs I posted I don't see any reason to leave ionos.

When i was with a customer who was using one of ther VPS offers, performance was unexpectedly low and upon contacting support it was clear the small fish dont get great support answers, but rather pushed to the FAQ.

And i personally find their offerings and marketing scummy. Big promotional prices, but always some small print with a higher price after x Months.
Or just stuff thats not included by default.
I never had that with other (also very cheap) providers.

As long as it works great for you, i wouldnt see a reason to leave.
There arent that many providers offering such small ressources at all or at such a price. To be fair, not much one can do with those specs.. 10GB storage is very limited already.
But for those specs.. always free oracle tier would work too (though requires a credit card).
