Yeah, they scale down to their kimsufi line which used to have quite powerful dedicated servers for the price of basic VPSes from other providers.

e.g. They have a 4core, 16gb ram server for $22/mo which is 25% of what my preferred provider, Linode, charges.

Now, it comes with older consumer hardware (that one is a sandy bridge i5), and about as much support as the price tag suggests, as well as a dated management interface, but when I used to run a modded minecraft server as a college student, which needed excessive amounts of RAM and could be easily upset by load spikes on other clients, then it was a no-brainer, even if I would expect the modern-ish Xeons Linode uses to win on a core for core basis.

Dated? They're probably the only place that isn't $comedy "bare metal cloud" pricing that not only has an API for their $5/m servers but also the panel is a reasonably modern SPA that implements that API and uses OAuth for login

Has it been replaced since I last used it in ~2016? This is not the interface I had to use at all.

This is the interface they had when I used them last:

Yeah this is not at all what you use now. It's an Angular SPA.

It is still a mess of separate accounts, but you can use email addr to log in instead of random-numbers generated handle.

The OVHCloud US is completely separated for legal purposes, from what I remember. No account sharing, different staff, OVH EU cannot help you at all with US accounts.

Yes it changed. It was replaced by a more modern version a few years ago (but the transition was painful, as not everything was implemented in the new version when they started to deploy it).

for me, at times you'd not bother trying to remember your NIC-handle and just curl the API instead out of laziness
