Scaleway out of France has been doing baremetal cloud nodes for years. I used them during the beta and they are fantastic (despite slight latency due to being in France). Their smallest baremetal node starts at €3/mo for 4 ARM cores/2GB RAM/50GB SSD. Pretty cool infrastructure to be able to auto provision physical nodes on demand, but I think it's a different use case from the whole lightweight serverless processes on demand thing.

If only they supported NixOS... I would use them if/when they make the leap.
Are you sure they don't? NixOS can be installed on top of any Linux distribution, unless the hardware is really weird.

ETA: It looks like it is complicated, but might work. See https://nixos.wiki/wiki/NixOS_on_ARM/Scaleway_C1
