I have had an arm-based dedicated server with OVH (old SoYouStart line) for over four years now:

    processor       : 0
    model name      : ARMv7 Processor rev 1 (v7l)

It's in Gravelins.

The old storage server with Dual Core 1GHZ ARM CPUs?

This one, yes.

Those came out before cheaper VPSs with that storage level came out.

So they should rephrase it to mean that they're the first to offer ARMv8 dedicated servers?

No.. they should just rephrase that they offer arm based dedicated servers instead of trying to reach the headlines

I'd say having access to dedicated ARMv8 in Europe is headline worthy.

Agree, some interesting problems require it

They're not even that. AWS (via Graviton) and OCI (via the same Ampere Altra chips Hetzner are using) at least have had Arm servers in Europe for a while. AWS longer than OCI.
