| What is "sovereign infra" exactly? |

| I know it's just marketing speak, but the term made me think of the scenes in the Matrix where what's left of humanity (ignoring all the cyclical lore that was added on top of it) has to make sure the machines can't remote in to any of their tech. |

| No less than self hosted, imo. If youre on some cloud it doesnt really matter that you pay them absurd amounts of money, you arent sovereign. |

I definitely would not want to be "sovereign" then. Point is: This discussion is much more multi-dimensional than some suggest. | |

| ▲ | icy 2 hours ago | parent [-] | | Yeah sorry it's marketing BS speak for self-hosted or just infra that you control. It could be a VPS, it could be a Raspberry Pi at home. Your repos live on your servers. (And we support this on Tangled today!) | | |
| ▲ | embedding-shape 2 hours ago | parent [-] | | > just infra that you control But a VPS isn't actually infrastructure you control, you essentially have as much control over it as "cloud", so I don't think that'd be counted as "sovereign", would it? | | |
