Scaleway have broken their iPXE netboot kernel setup, it seems, and their support lot are wasting my time.

Anyone got a reason *not* to go with Hetzner? (Even their "small VPS" now seems to be "cloud instance", which is a bit worrying in an actually-this-is-more-a-pet-than-cattle I'm-not-going-to-Terraform-one-machine sense.)

OVH actually seem promising, because they still have "small VPS" in their product offerings, not just "oh yeah, just use the smallest cloud instance", which makes some unfortunate assumptions about disposability of state.

(And they're also in Europe, unlike Digital Ocean.)

@LionsPhil Or, depending on your needs (and their availability), go with a Kimsufi. Actual dedicated server, dirt cheap.
