A thought experiment: if you suddenly had access to the resources required and had a burning desire to create a community-owned and -governed cloud computing/hosting service/alternative to AWS, what would you be sure to consider, include, provide, support?
@kfitz I'd want to find a way to balance durability with environmental impacts. Ideally things should be backed up in multiple physical locations (especially given increased severe weather due to climate change), but the cloud takes a LOT of electricity to run.
@tophkat Ugh, truly. Thanks for this, Kate!
