online.net themselves (proper dedicated servers) are fine, and their network is reliable, fast and they have good uptime.
Scaleway's hardware and software is a huge problem, it's unreliable to the point of being unusable. I'd only use it for cheap hosting of build server workers. Their disks for example have no RAID, you're expected to mount multiple volumes and perform software raid yourself, except that there's no easy way to do that and also you often run into limits for how many disks you can attach to a VM!
