Softaculous support.
I’ve used them since 1999.

Re: Who Does Your Textpattern Hosting?: July 2021 Edition
Mostly Net Virtue – on their Australian shared hosting.
CPanel, multiPHP manager and / or PHP Selector, PHP 5.6 thru 8.0.
Generally good support from a small team.
No trouble with TXP that I can think of.
edit: Web host acquired by VentraIP in August 21… jury out on new mob.
2022 edit: Endless trouble with mod_sec at ventraIP. They don’t really support saving forms to database, which makes txp life difficult. mod_sec cannot be disabled at this host, you can only get particular rules excluded.

I have a dedicated server at Hivelocity (hivelocity.net) and a VPS with Liquid Web (liquidweb.com). I maintain multiple PHP options, depending on the site’s requirements, including PHP 5.6, 7.2, 7.3, 7.4 and 8.0.

Also NetVirtue for the last 5 years or so; many of my clients use them too.
No issues to date, excellent support.

I’ve been using Dreamhost for about 15 years, I think.
Non-affiliate Link: Choose Your Hosting Plan
I am helping a gallery with their site which is hosted on Dreamhost There are issues with updating the defaut page in Textpattern which fails to save to the DH server. And if we login to dreanhost and make the changes within the Theme folder the change seems to take place, but we beleive it doesn’t as what we see back in Textpattern does not reflect the change. Strange

- do you, after updating the files on disk (in the Themes folder) update the Textpattern internal/DB copy: Themes panel, check the active theme, then from the multi-edit dropdown at the bottom,
Update from the disk
? Textpattern does not do it automatically. - make sure the panel files are not cached by the browser (those are every year a little more aggressive in caching pages + JS processing). Option or Shift + reload once or twice should do.
That works for me on DH.

I will +1 Guru, they’re my go-to for clients in the mid-tier spending category. The email sync tool is useful, as are their migrations team.
…and I’m done with Guru. I set up a client with web + email on their shared hosting, having never used their email service before, and what a mess. Weird routing, non-delivery for perfectly valid emails from perfectly valid servers…maybe I’m just spoiled with the flexibility of a VPS, but I’m not touching them again.
Want to add a domain to your shared hosting account? Sure thing! You’ll need to make a subdomain of your primary domain, and that’s non-negotiable. Huh? I don’t want www.example.org.example.com
to be in my DNS, how is that even helpful?
Also, eff cPanel and WHM. How in the blazes do normal people use this junk?

Maybe relevant. Some other names are mentioned in the thread, I think.
