What happens when an instance starts needing more resources than its original server?
Is there a way that users could cohost an instance? If there isn't, I think that would be a great feature to implement. Having a situation where instances slow down or even occasionally disconnect will be hard on any community. I feel like it could eventually cause people to prefer using instances owned by large and well funded groups instead of passionate users.
... creating our own capability to make cloud computing infrastructure basically...? Yea that'd be kinda cool. Would piss Amazon off though, we might have our hands full at the moment. Drawing the scrutiny of another tech giant this early might be ... unwise.
Probably, but it depends. Only a fool would ignore an easy opportunity to prevent the entry of a new competitor. It's not like we're some big company with real monetary power of our own. We're easy to strangle in about a million different ways, just more tech dweeb stuff that only internet losers should like. Or so it could be easily spun.
