Hey everyone, thought I'd post some stats since we're one week old now!
From Vultr (instance is hosted through them):
Total applications: 116
Denied applications: 4 (one person asked to change username, 3 others gave one word answer to the application question)
Accepted applications: 112

Just saw your Edit. Yeah, this was probably the first post I think. I wouldn't be here myself if things weren't as transparent as they could possibly be.
As for Hetzner, yeah I've used them in the past (they're great) but for initial setup, I felt that Vultr was probably just fine. That said, I'm definitely going to have to bump up the storage and RAM on this instance in the very near future, we're cutting it closer than I'd like, specifically:
df -h:
free -m
I think a 2 tier bump to $24/month 2 vCPUs, 4GB RAM, 5TB egress at Vultr might serve us for a decent amount of time. And it would probably still be cheaper than the cheapest Hetzner dedicated we could find. Maybe.
