I would recommend Digital Ocean for a VPS. With you being in the US latency should be decent and you can pick whichever is closer to you either SF or NY. My Lemmy instance is hosted on DO even.

I am going to give SearXNG a try myself. It looks promising. I hadn't heard of it before today, but I am setting up a container for it now.
This is a great tool and one that was badly needed. If I didn't run my own instance, I would definitely use this.
I use Brevo and have not had any issues. Your usage qualifies for their free plan.
