Is it feasible to use Neon connecting from smaller clouds, such as Hetzner, DO, Linode, etc? Thanks.

Yes of course. People do it all the time.

For small workloads egress cost doesn’t matter. For larger - well it does.

I wish it was illegal to charge so much for egress for cloud providers.

Thanks, will try. I was worried about latency between distinct providers.

It’s mostly a region question. If the data centers are physically close to each other latencies will be low as well: https://neon.tech/blog/sub-10ms-postgres-queries-for-vercel-...
