For $2.50 you can get 1 vCPU, 512MB RAM, 500GB bandwidth, and 10GB storage from Vultr[1]. The only catch is it's IPv6 only, you have to add an extra dollar monthly to get an IPv4 address ($3.50).
For $5.00, you get 1GB of RAM, 1TB of bandwidth, 25GB of storage, and an IPv4 address. Not bad...
1 GB, and 20 GB disk, at OVH. With unlimited bandwidth.
Here though, that service could be hosted on a static website (free at github/gitlab/cloudfare/etc), with client-side javascript used to decode data encoded in the url fragment.
Hmm interesting, haven't heard of those yet. Though seems like I was a bit off, DigitalOcean has a 512MB instance for $4 and Scaleway a 2 GB one for $6.5. But then again Scaleway will also nickle and dime you separately for the IP, the HDD and anything else that they can possibly think of.
Hmm, I just double-checked OVH's VPS offers and actually, it's 2GB RAM, 20GB disk, 1vcore, unlimited 100Mbps for €3.5/month (€4.20 with VAT). That's their "starter" offer.
