How is that different than e.g. Amazon? They too have a vested interest in moving fast, innovating, etc... That's really how aws came to be anyways.

I’ve honestly asked this question multiple times to people. FB made a mistake not doing this 10+ years ago. Feels too late now. What can they offer that isn’t available already?
