I've found that a lot of typical residential traffic (Netflix) is blocked when routing through datacenters.

I'd love to hear your experience.

Lots of gaming traffic is also banned. People use AWS for malicious purposes (usually free tier) and then the IP gets recycled, eventually, to a legitimate user.

Popular cloud hosts with a freemium option are a bad idea for personal vpn.

I don't have any issues with Netflix on either Linode or Digital Ocean personally.
