I am a Hetzner customer. I was in the middle of migrating infrastructure from DigitalOcean to Hetzner, most of all because DO's i/o on their droplets has been abysmal for a long time now.
Hetzner's latest price increase doubled-to-tripled the costs of any new resources I would deploy there. I've now halted the migration and I am seriously considering going all the way back to colo.
This most recent price increase was not communicated months in advance. I'm kind of wondering if you're thinking of the other price increase that happened this year, and not the most recent one: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=48540844
Yes, this is the price increase I was talking about. I aggressively delete emails or I'd search back through my emails to give you exact dates, but it was communicated at least 3 times prior to the increase and it was for sure at least 2 months ago and probably more than that. Maybe your spam filter caught the emails? Not sure how else you could have missed the message.
