The one thing I don't see mentioned is the cost. How much more does it cost (say compared to DigitalOcean) for a VPS in Iceland?
Not implying an extra cost wouldn't be worthwhile, but curious if it's a marginal difference or something like double the price.
There are not a Linodes or Digital Oceans in Iceland so it’s definitely more expensive. I think it’s safe to say it’s almost double the price if you buy a VPS with similar specs. Check out 1984hosting.com or orangewebsite.com to figure out for yourself.
Put into perspective, I pay the equivalent of 100eur in Iceland for a decent sized server (64GB memory, 4TB storage, and my own subnet announced), and in Finland I pay 34eur for the exact same specifications.
