Any recommendations for a new patcher host?

The one we have is causing problems, and the techies on the other end aren't good at all, they've changed something but wont admit to what which has caused my patcher to not work for the past 2 days.

I honestly cba with their support and because were in beta its easier to just shift the files.

you need vps ideally web hosting companies will always cause issues tbh. smallest one from Hetzner or OVH would do, if you can keep your client under 10gb can user ionos £1.20 vps -.- but their next one up would be ideal too. speeds are good on ionos too.

I personally use Hetzner and IONOS, zero issues tbh.

Ah never thought of that, will have to have a look at setting that up on a VPS, can't imagine it being too complicated :D

extremely simple, dns it to your domain via ip to like patch.domain or something too,

and just setup a basic apache server or nginx
