MFW the website I run on a raspberry pi sitting in my living room has better uptime than two of the planet's largest cloud providers
That was my takeaway from all this as well. Every additional redundancy also seems to add a new single point of failure to manage it, so your cost goes up, but your effective reliability does not.
The only way a system would be actually redundant would be if the protocol was something like bittorrent, where your servers operate completely independently and don't need a central point to route users between them.
@ricci Nice 😀
I'm jealous... I would love to be able to do the same but even combining two internet connections I still have worse uptime than any cloud provider
