_Learnt_ self-hosting? You mean people this days start from the cloud as a default?

Yes, thats why all these services are popping up and earning tons of cash… look at next.js for example.

They lead young devs into their framework and make them believe that the only way to serve their sites is through them, and to pay their extortionate prices…

People are not educated to self host. Everything is run in a “droplet” and just a click away.
