Hello, am looking for an affordable (5$ to 15$ a month) VPS service that provides in my country (Morocco) to host my website but don’t want to use Linode, Vultr etc since they are not co-ops, I haven’t found any with the requirements so am looking for some guidance, thanks!

As far as I’m aware there is no such service in existence.

Understood, thank you for answering my question.
@Schola you could start your own! https://servers.coop
Or host from your own home or local friendly internet connected location: https://homebrewserver.club
DIY energy over and out.

Our cooperative, IO Cooperative, provides VPSs for $75/year ($6.25 / month). That gets you 1GB memory, 0.5 CPU and 25GB storage. You can scale up the memory CPU and storage as well.
We’ve been around since 2012 and have about 130 members. Our website has more details on pricing as well as the governance of our cooperative (We’re a California Consumer Cooperative)
Discourse won’t let me post a link to our website, but we’re easy to find in search engines if you look for “IO Cooperative”

Welcome to the forum @gene I can’t believe we haven’t linked to your co-op from this forum before!
The forum restrictions on new users (which are lifted when you reach Trust Level 1) had to be introduced due to abuse from spam bots 
.
Here is a link to your site:
I’d also not come across the Ganeti Project before either!

Thanks @chris . Ya, we use Ganeti (for background look up Ganeti on Wikipedia) to manage our VPS cluster as it was developed at Google and we have some ex-Googlers in the co-op.
