Why in the world do you think “big tech” would single out one shitty German hosting company not even covered by the post in question, and I can't just be one pissed off ex-customer warning others to stay far away?
Hetzner is pretty terrible.
Hetzner is pretty terrible.
They blackholed my server right when things were starting to hockey stick and took until the following day to unlock it. I lost a ton of users to a full outage while I had an unplanned migration to AWS.
When they finally unlocked my server their tech responded to my ticket begging them to unlock my server with an extremely condescending “It’s unlocked but I’m certain you’re not in control of this server”
Anyway, never again. I’ll pay a premium for stability and intelligent support staff and systems that don’t automatically blackhole your server.

Not a good company if you’re relying on it for anything important
