I’ve had only positive experiences with Linode, including incidents where I faced absolutely massive DDoS attacks.

On the other hand, my account is suspended from DigitalOcean, I have multiple droplets they refuse to give the data to, and they even had the audacity to keep billing me until I did credit card chargebacks. I still have no idea why I was banned.

Maybe because I used the GitHub student pack promo but I had already finished uni? I don’t know.




Another happy Linode user here. They might not have the nicest interface, but their service is top notch and I much prefer their UI to Digital Ocean's any day of the week. I've been with Linode for ten years now.
