I use the free OpenShift service, operated and supported by Red Hat. They do not require ads or popups. My framework is Flask.

Yes it was you I was thinking of d2d4j, I didn't want to name you earlier because I want sure of your current offers, but I do recall you offering decent prices in the past.  I don't mind you posting the details because I know you contribute on DSL and you arent here to advertise your company.

I tend to change up my web hosting service quite frequently, for no apparent reason, but am now looking into some shared hosting offers - for gaming of course!  ;D
Has anyone got any suggestions?

Until recently Zen were hosting my blog and my website (which has now been taken down because I am lazy) their service is very well run and if you are a Zen customer might make sense although they are relatively expensive, I used their Bronze package for 4.79/month.

@matt9 : During the last few summers I usually pay for a Minecraft server for my kids to run, I do all the geeky stuff but they admin it, etc.  I have had very good experiences with Nitrous Networks - they have servers on both sides of the Atlantic, decent responsive Tech Support, no bandwidth issues I have ever encountered you can sometimes find discount codes.  They also give you a free Mumble server to go with your gaming server.  Their remote management console and backup system works well - I paid for the basic server but usually end up heavily modifying the configuration and even uploaded my own custom server config and they didn't seem to mind at all.  2016 was the third year I have used them, and will do again.

Hey Chunks, thanks very much for the informative reply.

Sounds like you've got it sorted. Will definitely look into Zen, thank you. I am, however, a bit of a while away from uploading my own custom server config, but some day soon hopefully!

I was also toying with the idea of a cloud server, and there's lots online about it (https://www.1and1.com/digitalguide/hosting/technical-matters/why-you-should-switch-to-cloud-hosting/), but I still feel like shared hosting is the way to go, especially as a bit of a gamer.

Thanks guys!  :)

I've taken d2d4j up on his very kind hosting offer, currently only using it for my families email accounts. I've always had my own domain name, and just redirected to my ISP email accounts, but with a potential ISP move coming up soon I thought it was time to do it properly.

It wasn't very complicated and John was very helpful, the control panel is very nice and simple to use (if I ignore the stuff I don't need to know about) and the webmail is great, there's actually the choice of three different webmail clients and I can very easily access my favourite by appending it's name to the end of my domain name such as https://mydomain.co.uk/roundcube/
