When consulting for a seed funded startup, I suggested they buy their own servers and colocate them. It could save them almost 100k a year.
Everyone looked at me like an alien speaking a different language, lol. Then was politely dismissed, even though I'm experienced in running hardware.
AWS, GCP, Azure, really managed to expertly pull off the greatest heist of all time. They're useful for sure, but somehow they've gotten everyone to drink this potent marketing kool-aid that if you're not using them then you're not serious about success. So cringe.
