    I hate to tell you but a VPS is just a VM in the cloud. Unless you’re paying for bare metal, at which point you are paying an arm and a leg.

      You’re technically correct, but missing my point.

      Yes, it’s both ‘a cloud’ but a VPS is much cheaper and needs way less configuration compared to a so-called ‘cloud provider’ like AWS, Azure or Alphabet (or other companies starting with the letter A, I guess).
