The New Linode Cloud: SSDs, Double RAM and much more

So now they match DigitalOcean prices but offer slightly more SSD space for each plan. I wonder what DO answer to this would be. They haven't changed their pricing for quite a while.

DigitalOcean still beats Linode on price as half the time I don't need a 2GB server but I do want to keep servers separate (multiple 512s at $5 is better for me than 1 2GB).

I need 2gb - 4gb servers and DO's quality has decreased since they've grown so much.

I would love to hear why as well! Our quality and stability have significantly improved over the last year and as a co-founder of DO, I would like to understand what specific issues you faced. Feel free to shoot me an email directly ([email protected]) to take this conversation offline.

Mainly around spinning up instances and network latency.

The increased CPU on some of the plans compared to DO is what is encouraging me to change. When doing web scraping, it's easy to max the CPU once you are doing 20 paths on a page.
