IMHO it is their approach. I use Hetzner and OVH (and their other variants for lower budget clients) for our EU clients. They do not use buzz words like "deploy app server", "cloud clusters", "turbo charge this app". They are simply providing VPS and similarly configured droplets. They are also established and don't want to mess around with very modern experimental infrastructures.

Same goes for Digital Ocean. No buzz words. Just hosting with droplets. They simply say "here pick a linux distro, configure whatever and don't ask us much about app support". I use their Linux distros for my own apps and if want anything extra I just install it and suffer my own actions' consequences. Not theirs.
