I used Linode in the past but liked my own Debian install and that is hard to do with their setup.
Linode allow you to upload your own file system image, which could be an alternative. I suppose another option would be to boot into their rescue environment and run Debootstrap to install a custom Debian system.
Gandi would be my other option as I have a lot with them and they have solid hosting options. I especially like their web hosting which runs on containers and is a good middle ground between VPS and managed web hosting.
I've used their domain registration service, but not their hosting services. For domain registration, they have been reliable. I manage my own DNS, so I don't rely on Gandi for that aspect.
