I don't know where they have it, but cohosting isn't exactly free.

1U of cohost with 100mbps in a cheap Eastern European DC will cost a few hundred euro per month... and my info is a few years old. It's more expensive now.

It is very specific case, that we should not extrapolate to mean it's general use case.

AWS/GCP/Azure are still a better places to start for most people.

14U colocation in Germany with 1 Gbps is EUR 100/m + power: https://www.hetzner.com/colocation

That power bit is the important bit.
