OVH, they're French but they have a datacenter in Beauharnois on the south shore of Montreal literally meters from a hydro dam.

Their support is extremely poor, to say the least. Expect to be down multiple days unless you happen to go down during their business hours.

Never seemed to have any issues, but I guess YMMV

Lemmy.ca was down for like two days because OVH had a PSU go on their host and they never responded to the support requests.

Similarly when I reboot my OVH server I have multiple people reaching out to start hardware intervention just for the ~3 minutes in unexpected downtime. Past servers when I've had hardware (hard drive or memory) failures they've been handled within less than an hour.

Not denying what happened to lemmy.ca but it definitely has not been my experience over the last 15 years.
