    Stack Overflow no longer has any physical datacenters

    Do they think cloud services are literally non-corporal?

    Has the cloud rug-pull happened yet or are they waiting for some recession to jack up prices?

        I understand why startups want cloud services. Don’t know why a group that reached the top of the s-curve a decade ago wants to pad Microsoft’s or google’s or Amazon’s profits.

        I suppose shard(t)ing, but wouldn’t a CDN be a better fit? Maybe GDPR.

        Wait a sec, do we actually know if hyperscalers like M$ and Fuckle are making profit off of that business and won’t need to drastically increase prices later on (similar to Netflix, Discord, etc.)?
