What's wrong with hosting on Google/Amazon? I understand that there is a paranoia of them taking control of your servers or stealing all of your data, but that is almost certainly not going to happen. I think the real issue is that they're monopolizing services that non developers use.
- bhhaskin 9y agoIt's less about them taking control and stealing data and more about spreading out. If we keep only choosing Google/Amazon then one day there will be no more competitors. There are also plenty of good competitors for smaller/personal projects.
- rhodysurf 9y agoTrue, but there arent many places that I can host my side projects for free with zero server maintenance like I can on App Engine. Its a trade off.
