All 65535 ports are available to be opened or closed on a VPS.

Thanks! Also, I was wondering what content is allowed to be hosted on a VPS? I ended up getting port forwarding working on my router, but I've been wanting to host a Tor Node for a long time. Could I use a VPS for this, or would this violate the TOS?

A VPN for family/friends to use would be fine, but I wouldn't recommend hosting a public offering like Tor (especially an exit node), because all it would take is someone to be connected through your VPS and engage in illegal activity while connected for us to get an abuse report. Abusive VPSes get turned off until you can correct the issue, or if the activity in question was intentional / user refuses to correct it, the VPS can get banned without a refund.

As for other content, you can host basically anything on a VPS so long as it isn't illegal. Game servers are a common use for them, as are private VPNs as above.

Things you are not allowed to host on our VPSes include things such as: scams, phishing, spambots, malware distribution or control servers, torrent seed boxes, crypto miners, porn (we prohibit adult content), infringing content like pirated movies, or stolen content such as from a data leak.
