A major decentralized chain went offline recently due to infrastructure cost mismanagement—turns out they couldn't cover their AWS bills. Classic reminder that even projects aiming for true decentralization still heavily rely on centralized cloud services. When your grand vision crashes because of unpaid server fees, you're forced to rethink what 'decentralized' actually means.

After paying so much tuition, I realize that decentralization is just a dream.

Can't even pay for AWS fees and still talk about decentralization, this cracks me up.

Owing money to AWS and getting disconnected—this really cracks me up. No matter how loudly you shout the slogans, it can't change the fate of relying on centralized services.

Can't even handle AWS bills properly, and you still have the nerve to talk about decentralization? That's hilarious.
