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.
