Good Hosting Options - Kbin (and Mastodon)? (kbin.social)

Hello federated party people!

My partner and I have been contemplating hosting our own instance and I think we're about 80% of the way there. However, finding a host to host our instance(s) isn't particularly easy; there are hosts that are explicitly pro-federation, but those are few and far between.

Self-hosting is not an option, alas.

So, who do you use, if you host an instance? How do you like the experience? Anything we need to be aware of before we dive right in? We're both technically savvy, but the back-end of federation isn't something either of us have messed with.

Our sincere thanks in advance... and viva la fedeloution!

I believe yunohost still has a Lemmy installer.

I used RackNerd for a small personal instance. Works very well and is cheap.

I haven't tried it, but I did see fly-lemmy which used fly.io.
