I posted this a few days ago and everyone said they will have free set up fee in black friday. But I just found out that if I go tho the US ovh they have the exact same configuration without the set up fees. So I created a US account and try making a purchase. It is possible (not pay yet) to get Singapore location but that conflict with this. I posted this here in hope that someone from ovh can give me an answer. Can I buy it or not? I don't wanna get my account banned or anything.

What should I know before getting myself a dedicated server? It's hard to ask the right question because I don't know what I don't know. Should I learn how to optimize the server before getting one? Comming from windows I always have to debloat it after a fresh install should I do the same? What don't I know?

My use case for this is to run a folia server (CanvasMC) I already speak to people in the folia and canvas discord and my server type is perfect for it so no worry about that.

The server I'm getting is Advance-4 from ovh

when can i expect no set up fees on this? iirc OVH get rid of the set up fees from time is it random or is it scheduled?
