> They never had any major downtime for me

One of my server was lost to a fire so...

That being said, only happen one and I had no data on it so I didn't mind.

I switched to Hetzner too.

How many data centers have had a server room burn to the ground?

We had a halon system in an on-prem data center twice the size of my bedroom. We had to knock out a wall because the volume was too small for the smallest cooling system we could get installed in the building. That was 20 years ago, and we had to do it for insurance reasons. In the United States, which I know you Europeans like to make fun of for being sooo amusingly Neanderthal.

What the absolute fuck, OVH.
