I turned off my French server after nearly five years. It
wasn't possible to upgrade its Ubuntu install any more (or
at least, to make it boot a newer kernel). Scaleway had
accepted a bunch of government money to launch some physical
ARM based dedicated servers, but I don't think it was a
profitable endeavour for them.
Of course, now that things run from my basement, I need to
worry about the uptime of my house network. I had some
firmware upgrades to do at the weekend which caused some
blips and dropped my PPPoE session and I have some upcoming
maintenance for the building power which will probably
involve some downtime. Such is life, I guess.
