Previously looked at on the Wiki page:

https://wiki.ircnow.org/index.php?n=Vps.Vps I think this one has some merit, though they don't accept crypto.

Niche/esoteric or found elsewhere:

HostMyApple: https://www.hostmyapple.com/

MacInCloud: https://www.macincloud.com/

Rentamac: https://rentamac.io/

MNX: https://mnx.io Apparently they bought out part of Joyent (of SmartOS fame, of OpenIndiana fame, an OpenSolaris derivative).

RackNerd: https://racknerd.com I'm told they accept XMR.

FranTech: https://my.frantech.ca/index.php I could be wrong, but I believe IRCNow may use them? I'm told they accept XMR.

Pubnix:

SDF: https://sdf.org/ https://sdf.org/plan9/ Has plan9 offering, seems to be free.

Freeshell: https://freeshell.de You send a postcard in to get access AFAIK.

Domain registrars:

Epik https://www.epik.com/ I don't think they rent VPSs, just "web hosting".

The aforementioned Gandi is also a domain resgistrar.

MNX:

After looking at their FAQ they seem to accept only major credit cards.

MNX FAQ

We accept Visa, MasterCard, American Express, and Discover.

Their signup page asks for First Name, Last Name, Email address, Company Name, Country, and then username and password.

Some notable passages from their TOS:

MNX TOS

Basic support and maintenance of servers is provided at the discretion of MNX Solutions. In the case of erroneous instances or support issues extending beyond what we determine to be within the realm of reasonable assistance, support is priced as follows:

$100/hour

Lol. Far more important is this however -

MNX TOS

Examples of prohibited content and usage include (but are not limited to):

Pirated software Distribution of music files or any other material in which the account holder does not own the copyright. Tor exit or relays are prohibited at this time Crypto currency mining

MNX Solutions will be the sole arbiter as to what constitutes a violation of this provision.

So basically anything could be a violation. Whatever they say so...

Next.

RackNerd:

RackNerd FAQ

We accept the following payment methods:

ALL major credit cards (AMEX, Discover, VISA, Master). PayPal Cryptocurrency (Bitcoin, Bitcoin Cash, Litecoin, Ethereum, USDT, USDC) Alipay/支付宝 Wire

More payment methods are supported upon checking out.

What will checkout show?

They offer Alma, Rocky, Cent, Debian, Fedora and Ubuntu.

At checkout they ask for First and Last names, phone number, email address, and billing address. What a joke.

It seems account creation comes before you really get to see the offered the payment methods, not that it matters with all of that info they want you to hand over.

Next.

FranTech:

Is apparently a BuyVM reseller (says so on the home page). Pricing looks really good (ie $2/mo for 512mv and 10gb storage for example, however it is out of stock). Very little of anything is available. Cheapest plan available is $60/usd.

Asks for first name, last name, email, phone number and billing address. Clearly offers XMR at the checkout. Separates XMR, SHIB ETC etc from BTC, LTC and DOGE etc for some reason. Also offers PayPal, Credit/Debit and Alipay.

Looking at the Terms of Service it says:

BuyVM/FranTech TOS

3,1,1 - Clients must provide their legitimate name and surname and residential address when registering an account.

3,1,2 - P.O. Boxes and non-residential or mail forwarding addresses are not accepted.

3,1,3 - A valid phone number is not required for registration.

3,1,4 - Registration and Order Placement must take place from the client's residential ISP.

3,1,5 - Account details must match information provided by payment method.

What an absolute joke! I wonder if CMRA or PMB would be allowed? Probably not since those would be "non residential".

Other than that it simply says they try to follow the "law of the land" of whatever god forsaken country you happen to regretfully choose.

EDIT: Did some further reading. Apparently they do not care about the accuracy of the information so long as you pay with crypto.
