UK VPS for Tiny RSS
I have been running Tiny RSS (https://tt-rss.org/) on wable for a while without any problems but I wanted to move it to the UK/Europe. I was wondering what sort of spec machine I would need to run Tiny RSS with about 200 blogs syncing running with MySQL and Nginx.
Quite happy to pay yearly for a reliable UK VPS and would consider IE/FR/DE/NL also. Any suggestions?

@arubacloud would be great for you requirement
http://lowendspirit.com?
http://megavz.com in case they are too small
If you can live without Ipv4 lowendspirit would do good.
The guy who develops tt-rss makes Aldryic look like the world's most affable person.
Every post on their forums is replied to with some variation on the theme of "fuck off" - he's a real dick. I stopped using the software out of fear of ever having to ask a question about it at some point.
You won't find better offer than https://www.scaleway.com/pricing/ IMO.
@VPSensational what would suggest as an alternative?
Have a look at FreshRSS, it has got a nice interface and similar features
https://tt-rss.org/forum/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=3512
Just a small reason why you shouldn't use this piece of software. Look at the other responses by "fox" in that forum.
Sent you a PM :-)
I love reading fox's replies in the forum, better than LET...
On a serious note though, he/she is obviously a developer, not a sales person. The product tt-rss is good, there IS community support and lots of apps do support it.
He's not obligated to be "nice" to you, it's his software, his forum and he can tell you go FOAD all day long if you're being a dumbass asking stupid, obvious or misdirected questions (as in the linked "Youtube" thread). On the other hand looking through the forum I see that actual problems/bugs in tt-rss are being dealt with quickly and with no fuss whatsoever.
What fucking happened to LEB? Someone asks what the minimum requirements are and people answer with a gigabyte of RAM? At what point did it stop being about making the most of limited resources and start being about which company is desperate enough to whore itself out for the cheapest price?
I would be very surprised if you needed more than a 256MB RAM OpenVZ box (maybe even 128MB if you use Postgres instead of MySQL and are careful with the settings). It's not a heavy piece of software and it could even easily fit in a shared hosting account if it has cron access.
The irony is that I wouldn't even have seen the shit he posts in the forum if it wasn't for the fact that tt-rss automatically subscribes you to the forum RSS feed on a new install. I'm not in the habit of reading the forums of random open-source projects and would never have seen what an asshole he was.
If they don't want random users visiting their forum for support, they shouldn't expose the forum to random users as the first thing they see on a new install of tt-rss.
Thanks for all the suggestions, ended up deploying tiny rss on arubacloud
@arubacloud it is then for 1 euro month they are the best thing you can get in EU
I've had it running on a shared host out of laziness for ages and they've not complained about it.
Using a 512MB Droplet in the UK for TinyRSS, Piwik, Owncloud and some other random projects...no real perfomance issues so far and quite happy.
It is up since day 0 what results currently in about 322 days and counting!
