After seeing positive Scaleway mentions here on HN several times I opened an account to test performance. Damn it was slow, and I had set my expectations very low. I can understand for a site that didn't need CPU-heavy performance (I intended to use it for a personal Nextcloud instance) but my main issue was with reboot time. Change any settings in the control panel? Reboot needed. Applied kernel updates and need to restart? Wait for that reboot. It was agonizing, I had to abandon the process and check back an hour later to see if starting or stopping the machine had completed. Even when I decided I was done and ready to cancel, one more wait of 40+ minutes for the machine to shut down so I could delete it and release the reserved IP. I admire the fact that they decided to try something very different, but forcing every customer to copy the entire contents of their drive to a second device and then copy it all back again to restart is nuts. Currently on OVH for most things (by far the best performance/price ratio for my usage) but still keeping a couple DigitalOcean VPSs due to concerns about OVH's 'special' version of Ubuntu[0], which has me concerned. Hope that's resolved soon or I'm back to DO + AWS as a Plan B.
