I am selfhosting a lot of stuff, but some things are on good old DreamHost instead, for reasons of reliability and such. I'm sure many of you are in a similar position.

I've been extremely happy with DreamHost since ~28 years but various reasons prompt me to look for EU options. I am not looking for just plain stupid webhosting (not VPS) but the options I see are so limited: limited subdomains, limited mailboxes, limited databases, limited everything. DH has always offered "unlimited everything" for a few dollars per month, that's an insanely good offering.

Still, if you could recommend a good EU webhosting provider, what would you say?

Do you want all of that to be managed (DB, mailboxes, web-hosting,...) or just reliable hardware in "the cloud"?

For the latter, Hetzner.

Hetzner provides managed web hosting too. For emails I think you need to look for some other provider.

Huh, didn't know. Thanks. I guess Hetzner is the right answer in both cases then 😄
