> They have VMs and sell them as "cloud" but provisioning happens like you fill out a form and they give you a server. It's not instant but fast enough if you don't spin VMs up and down like crazy.

I think this information is outdated - I just did a quick and dirty test and it took 8 seconds to have a new instance up and a second to shut it down.

Very good to hear. When they launched I remember them saying that it will take up to 15 minutes for the VM to be ready.

My small Hetzner VM has been reliably running for years now, so I'm super happy with them, don't get me wrong.
