I run a C1 instance with Docker, and there weren't any immediate issues with stock kernels for me (I think I've switched between at least 4-5 during the year). Except when a systemd upgrade broke things and I had to reconnect the drive, but that wasn't Docker-related. However, I haven't had anything fancy there. (Docker multiarch support - or better say lack of one - is still a complete mess though. But that's also not a Scaleway issue.) There are tricks to running your own kernel there (via kexec), for Arch it's neatly packaged here: https://github.com/stuffo/scaleway-archkernel https://github.com/stuffo/scaleway-archkernel (but new servers don't have Arch as an option) Still, it's all terribly inconvenient. Possibly fun to mess with once, DIY/learning-style... but if you just want a server that works (and works in a way you want things to be, not how vendor had set it up) it could be sort of unpleasant.
