I would love to try out Linode again but I recently added $100 in credit at Vultr because they currently match your first deposit up to $100. Linode generally offers twice the RAM at all price points so it's almost always a better value.

Linode's biggest short-coming has always been their storage options. There is still no way to add arbitrary storage volumes to a VPS on Linode, if you need more storage space you have to switch instance size. There's nothing like Vultr's block storage or Digital Ocean's droplets.
