Watch out that electricity costs went up significantly in Europe in the past months. I am a happy hetzner customer since 2012 I think. Their server monthly costs were just a bit higher than my electricity bill would've been if I were to keep a machine up 24/7 at home, so I rented a machine from them having the hardware basically for free.

Last week I got an email from them saying my server cost would increase from 30eur/month to 48eur/month. I can take afford the increase, but I wonder how many companies with infra bills of tens or hundreds of thousands will be able to afford a 60% increase in hosting costs.
