I've used SoYouStart for nearly a decade. Hetzner's server auction is also a great place to grab a cheap server if you are located in Europe. I struggled with buffering no matter what I did when attempting to stream Plex to North America.

I switched to feralhosting (.com) a while ago.; Fairly happy with it. All I use it for is transmission though.

Not to sound shilly, this is my own personal experience. https://hostingby.design/ - specifically their "app boxes" are great for building buffer. About $11 p/m for 4TB HDD/10TB bandwidth (only upload is counted, download is not).

Never had issues with speed or overcrowding of services. Been with them on and off for 4 years now.

Do they give you root ssh access though?

Yes, although it is limited in what you can install/do as most shared boxes are. You can also buy a dedicated server from them if you want full control and setup to your own liking.

Links below will give you a better idea about their shared seedboxes.
