I have hetzner vms going on 500+ DAYS without restart.
I've been a hetzner customer for about 8 years now. Aws has been down x10 times more than hetzner has.
And even when hetzner has issues they are localized to a single DC at worst, most often a single host is down.
When aws has issue.. The whole internet has issues. Or their central region goes out, also can affect their other regions.
For the small/medium businesses infra I manage here in bulgaria , the same thing would cost 5-10 times as much on aws just for the compute, throw in 1tb of bandwidth.. And this makes no financial sense.
On hetzner I pay 40 euros for 2 vms, dedicated ips, daily backups, 100gb of ssd external storage, and firewall.
I have more than 10 servers on Hetzner (some dedicated, some VPS), for 5+ years and the same experience, once one of the dedicated servers had some hardware issues, and an hour later the drives were moved to another box and it was running again. Other than that time, I had downtime only because of my own fault.
Pretty sure over these years AWS has experienced a lot more issues overall.
