In case it can help mastodon.
I can provide via Free-Solutions Sàrl baremetal Linux Ubuntu servers with 32 cores 1U servers 128GB nvram storage. I always have one spare in advance. Just let me know if we may work together.
Servers can be hosted in DC Switzerland with 1GB/s pipe or more. You will be granted full root access to physical host. I do think this make sense. Let's talk if this could be a win/win option.
Usually we do visioconferencing chat servers see https://www.free-solutions.ch/hosting
