They pay 6 euros for a VC1S and the automatic migration would put them on a 30 euro DEV1-L. They feel Scaleway just wants to be rid of such customers.

What does the signal score of 57 mean?
It's how well reviewed Scaleway is, out of 100. Negative and mixed reviews take points off, and so does having only a few reviews: a service needs plenty of them, compared with the most-reviewed services here, to reach the high 80s and 90s. It's worked out from reviews only, needs at least 5 of them, and updates as new ones come in.
