Hetzner is great but be wary of having anything even remotely related to cryptocurrencies running on those servers. They restrict not just mining but personal nodes (execution, consensus, light clients), and want nothing crypto related on their network.

I just want to play with having a clustered elixir/phoenix app running two instances in US and EU with local sqlite3 + litestream as a possible new stack for me.

Word. Their Helsinki data center is really good, I’ve run several bare metal servers over the years. IIRC it’s run on 100% renewable energy (wind and solar and hydro) which is sweet. Pricing for really powerful AMD servers is great too!
