Mastodon Instance on an Anubiz Switzerland VPS
Switzerland is the high-protection tier for Mastodon instance hosting. BÜPF telecoms secrecy plus non-EU posture means the instance operator has the strongest statutory privacy shield available in our lineup. The trade-off is cost - Swiss VPS pricing is meaningfully above Romania, Netherlands, or Czech Republic. Use Switzerland when your community runs content that attracts legal pressure and you want every defensible legal layer.

Why Switzerland for Mastodon
Operator metadata protected by BÜPF. Disclosure needs judicial process. Not in EU; not subject to DSA general framework, though Swiss law has equivalent intermediary obligations. Instance operator is the moderator of record.
Sizing
Swiss VPS V handles same scale as other V tier instances. Same Mastodon software stack tuning.
Cost Honesty
Switzerland VPS is roughly 1.5-1.8x Romania at equivalent tier. We pass datacenter cost through honestly rather than mask it.
Federation Note
You moderate. CSAM at infrastructure layer on credible notice. Swiss law applies to your operations.
