So I been running my shop on a NAT IPv4 box from Contabo for like 6 months now, cost me 3 bucks a month and I think its fine. Nginx reverse proxy, Cloudflare in front, only issue is some APIs dont like it but you just use IPv6 for those. Uptime 99.7% which is better than my last VPS that cost 10x. Anyone else tried this long term
I would never run production on NAT IPv4 I say this is a disaster waiting to happen I have seen too many payment gateways block NAT ranges I am worried for you

Transit for anything serious

To be honest, I tested this at OVHcloud for internal tooling. Specs:
As said, fine for hobby. Production? Dry humor: you get what you pay for, which is approximately three coffees.

Yikes I tried this on my game box and immediately got pwned by anti cheat lol... they flag nat ranges as noob hosting gg... now I cant even run my cs2 server without getting banned gg... back to real boxes I guess... yikes
What is being leveraged here is a value-added redistribution opportunity for partner ecosystem participants... synergy can be achieved by utilizing nat infrastructure for non-critical workloads while premium connectivity is leveraged for revenue-facing services... it is recommended that synergy be maximized through strategic placement within the partner ecosystem...
Payment api blocks, yes... what you expect for 3 dollar... NAT is nat... better to use ipv6 or pay more for real ip... not hard problem... just money problem... ))))
