Fediverse to them means masto, but nevertheless, they'll prolly try to impose their silly rules upon a network of people and services that will just thumb it's nose back at them when they try more of their authoritative, censorial garbage. We're not going to pay them no nevermind or even bother to answer the door if/when they come knocking. If the EU wants to play in the #Fediverse sandbox, they need to mind their manners and remember that right to pass is revocable by the owners (each and every person and server admin) of the Fediverse - if they do their typical uppity authoritarian crap they'll find out real fast what it means to be told to get fucked, with no recourse to do anything about it. And that's a good thing!

Oh this may be coming way too late to do you any good, please accept my apologies for not getting back sooner. There's a lot of inexpensive VPS providers out there, and although I myself feel confident in using many of them, all I can really tell you is do your research with them (intense research), and you can use https://lowendbox.com to assist in that endeavor. Now, If I'm to name any, it's certainly not going to be DigitalOcean, although you are going to find a quality product/service there.... and it will break the bank. The same goes with most of the others you'll hear of. The same goes for Vultr and most of the other common brands you've probably heard of. Here's the name I'm going to drop for you - https://Hetzner.de - They're not the cheapest, but it won't break the bank and what you will get is 20TB of traffic per month - that's almost unheard of, and let's say all you need is a litle 5 or 10 dollar box to act as your Wireguard server - that should make even the biggest binge watcher on Netflix happy. There's one other that I'll mention here, they used to be among the cheapest and offered a lot of OpenVZ machines, suitable for some things, but I don't think they do nowadays. Francisco is the owner of the company and is very proactive and responsive, has a good following and they used to be based almost exclusively in Fremont California in I think Hurricane Electric's facilities but I know since then he's branched out. Good service, communication, and reliability: https://buyvm.net - right now you can get 1GB RAM w/20GB of storage on KVM for $3.50/month. You can also get block storage (suitable for say, your OpenMediaVault server's iSCSI SAN) with 256GB of storage for $1.50/month I have no hesitation vouching for either one of those providers. I hope that helps! .
