    Doing a reverse lookup on the IP shows a German (.de) registrar and nameserver so I would guess Germany, but it’s entirely possible to have registration and server locations in different countries. Maybe our Captain could tell us, but I don’t know if that’s sensitive information.

      It is in Germany. Look at the owner of that IP. Contabo.de. They rent Proxmox VMs for incredibly cheap (6 euro/month for 4 cores, 8 GBs of RAM and 200GB SSD), I have one of them as well.

          Not sure if you are joking, but it is incredibly cheap. But you gotta get your own DDOS protection etc. Don’t really care. I run the webserver on it through cloudflare’s free plan and that has been good enough

              Yep, Contabo is cheap but trustworthy. I don’t actually remember how I learned about them, but I have had that VPS for almost 2 years at this point. They only increased the price by one euro last year
