Moving

I'm moving cloud providers. This sucks. The cloud is great for prototypes, or for projects that have extremely variable demands. The cloud is also notoriously expensive and it is very hard to change providers. The revenue from Patreon has never even come close to covering the running cost.

The problem with the 50s
