Yeah, something similar happened to me @ Scaleway (so, the part before the rebrand/merger/whatever they did). Incredible price increase for my usecase. Even with the limited 25% discount, it grew out of hand. I'm in the process of migrating to Hetzner, but unfortunately some stuff is IP tied and it takes some time to fix everything.
Even before that, the constant changing of plans for Cloud was anoying. One of the reasons I chose Scaleway was because they promised easy upgrade/increase of resources as I needed it on the VPS. But then they discontinued the line I was using and I had to create a completely new one anyway. Then I had to move that one to the higher priced models again. A lot of fuss for something I would just like to keep running as long as possible with as little involvment.
I am in the same boat. they increases the price out of the blue and their instance availability for scaling up or down is not great.(M1 is out of stock now)
I'm a former Scaleway employee so take this as a informed guess:
DC4 space is divided in very small, secure rooms (which you can see in the promotional video) with space for like less than a dozen racks at a time.
They probably filled a room with mac minis and will need to fill another room/racks to provide more hw to customers.
