@stefano Unfortunately I don't have a good alternative suggestion! Bare metal is definitely wise and staying in Europe certainly makes sense for regulations, but I don't actually know who I could recommend. (I even see malicious traffic here coming from OVH.) Your knowledge will be way ahead of me on technical hosting details.
Ugh, sorry for bringing you a problem without bringing a solution! I need to do more research myself.
But I love to see more BSD being used, yay!
@kohan Don't worry, I'm glad to read your observations about it. Some of the events described in the links you sent me were not known to me, and I would like to understand the philosophy of each provider I deal with well. Thank you!
