Not totally Next.js question but sure related enough.

I want to host Strapi CMS. I can't host it on Vercel. I have 2 options that I am familiar with - VPS a EC2.

VPS or EC2 for hosting: Which offers the best value for the money?

If you just want a good (24/7) server for hosting stuff, you can also use [netcup](https://www.netcup.de/vserver/vps.php): (see attached)

I like to use VPS, because I never used EC2 and only heard, that EC2 is really expensive
"use php"
DigitalOcean Droplet is a good option

Amazon almost doubled everything for the 1$ more. Would that suffice for blog with 10k visitors per month. What about 100k?
Left one is AWS and right one is Droplet from DigitalOcean
Should I maybe host it on my old computer. It is quite powerfull and its running all day long if needed
