oliver@eikopf.com10 Maywhy is being a conspiracy theorist so normal now. microsoft is not trying to prevent you from buying hard drives for a home server3135
Raphael@rtpg.bsky.social10 MayI don’t think its complicated. Companies that sell cloud compute etc would love for you to pay them rather than for you to not pay them. Incentives are aligned for them to prefer you renting from them!16
