What's there to disagree with? you prove my point.

it stood on the shoulders of volunteers

Yeah. A classic story. A sysadmin took the old server from his work after they upgraded and now runs <insert video game guild imageboard/wiki/chat> on it.

With the amount of traffic modern web pipes through Google's and Cloudflare's servers, all of you homebrewers wouldn't be enough to take over even 5% of that.

You can't go back to the good old days because you'll break your back trying to, and the collective lemmy anon can't, because they're too used to freeload while getting big tech quality service.
