I use hetzner, I don't have a lot of necessities right now (I use it as git repo and as firefox sync server), but I'm very happy with it.

How did you set up the FF sync server? I just did a quick search and I think the instructions I've found were mostly outdated. Do you have a link or a name for the port?

I also enjoyed hetzner for a while and if I'd want a ZFS install I'd probably go with them as it's definitely very nice how they do it. But as I've just previously commented I found a slightly better price for my minimum needs with vultr.com (5$/per month) and ZFS is not important to me on this box.

I've used the official instructions here: https://docs.services.mozilla.com/howtos/run-sync-1.5.html I've not used the ports DB for this, I've simply cloned the source on /var/www and went from there.

Seconded on Hetzner - they have a really nice ZFS on root install system.
