I have a Scaleway VM and the networking has lots of trouble. Would not recommend.
It's difficult to host a Tor hidden service on Scaleway because half the time the clients just can't connect. I have not figured out why this is.
I also find that my SSH session sometimes just randomly drops. It's nothing to do with keepalive. Sometimes I can leave it for a few hours and come back to it, sometimes if I look away for 10 seconds, the SSH session will be gone when I come back.
EDIT: Here's a chart showing my findings for Tor hidden services: https://img.jes.xxx/1940 the cht1 machine is the one on scaleway. The red charts show the proportion of requests which failed, you can see for cht1 this is normally more than half.
