I used to use Digital Ocean, still do for old projects, but recently migrated to Google Cloud Platform. Which is cheaper I'd say.
There's also a provider called vps.ag which is also quite affordable and serves me well.

Do you like Google Cloud Platform better than DO when it comes to performance, features, ease of use and support? 👀

I'm still tinkering around with it but for the most part yeah I do. It has a suite of features that I like.
Usability-wise, DO is definitely more beginner friendly.
For performance comparison, I haven't really compared the metrics but I like how easy it is to autoscale and the cloud run functions on GCP.
Overall, I'd attribute my fast pick up of GCP to having used DO and vps.ag for a long time so the shift wasn't as hard for me.
