Thomas TraynorIf you depend on a third party to handle your IoT device you just own a pricy brick. They can stop at any time, they can change what is supported, they can change the price. It won't change as there is no money in making devices we can run under local control.

Jamie Hamel-Smith@jherazob @thomastraynor there was an interesting conversation in one of the selfhosted lemmy communities that was discussing whether self-hosting in the cloud is still self-hosting… an adjacent conversation but still super interesting.
In the end, they agreed that cloud==bad has more to do with who manages the service and not who owns the hardware.
