Thanks for share this!

You know, this is the kind of of knowledge that we all like to have, but even then, all we have is your word (I don't have any reason to doubt it), what I tried to share here is a way to back all of that (at least performance, reliability is a different kind of monster) with numbers.

Let me add my word. Vultr is powerful and reliable. Recently they cut their prices roughly in HALF. They were the best (IMHO) before that. Now it's not even a competition.

Linode seems to provide pretty much exact same plans, but their control panel is a bit too geeky (you need a few extra steps to launch a OS because launching an instance means powering on an empty machine without a disk), touching Vultr control panel feels pretty easy.

I just hope they both get block storage deployed on all their regions.

Linode seems to be working in a new version of their control panel, I hope that they do a great work, because for too much people the current one is a entry barrier, even when they do a very good work.
