News cycles are weird faddish things. Don’t mistake news for any sort of reality.
Back in 1988, multiple countries sent ice breaking boats to the arctic to save 3 whales. It was a whole news cycle very similar to this.
Was that concern translated to concern and action to help whales in general? Nope. People only cared about those specific 3 whales.
This sort of stuff is crucial and needs to be built in.
Most instances are one user’s whim away from going away. This isn’t a problem as long as clients back things up and migration is easy. But, that doesn’t happen right now.
Guarantee we’ll see some big news at points in the future when a big instance goes down because the owner died or just lost interest.
Again, these are easily overcome, but they are issues right now.
