I'm thinking that it might be worth making this more clear by renaming the article title – the distinction between Online/Cloud IS confusing, and the title could do better. Maybe "Install NixOS on Hetzner Online (Dedicated Servers)" or "NixOS on Hetzner Online Dedicated Servers" to allow for expanding the article to cover any other specifics for this provider.
