AWS is down and then the internet stops working. But the blockchain, it never goe ... wait a minute. Scratch that. This sector is a joke. Everyone preaching decentralization and censorship resistance but in reality ... it's all 100% reliant on the cloud.

I do run an Ethereum and a Gnosis node, but guess I’m the 0.01% 😭 But unbanking yourself is pointless if you don’t have your own RPC, since you can still be censored. Anyway I’ll keep recommending to run one. It’s fun too!
