A mistake those companies often make is pissing off their “cheap” customers, not realizing that exactly those people are often the decision makers for larger deployments.

Just for context, I only moved because #Scaleway discontinued my cheap server ($6/m?) I had with them for like 10+ years.
The change path to a current product ended up with a $30/m thing. I asked support, they told me I can’t migrate to a similar new product. I would have to set it up from scratch.
Which of course I did, elsewhere 🖖.
Scaleway, not a recommendation of mine anymore.
