Calling OVH a "smaller hosting company" (which you did do indirectly) is rather funny.
The person you're replying to was relating their experiences at hosting companies that are smaller than OVH. How does that imply that OVH is a smaller hosting company?
to me it's ambiguous; it could be either of
> in smaller hosting companies [like ovh]
> in smaller hosting companies [than ovh]

Unless they meant "smaller hosting companies [than OVH]"?
Yes, a comma would have made it slightly clear:
> Yup, been there multiple times, in smaller hosting companies.
I find it funny that anyone would think I would or could refer to them as small (and get away with it)
Yup, been there multiple times in smaller hosting companies.
It's basically how it goes. They don't get serious about outages until revenue is severely affected and the brand damaged, they don't get serious about security until there's been a big breach or sales are lost because of lack of certification.
