Stop the disingenous techbro “but you already use datacenters/yet you live in society, curious” excuse. We are talking about hyperscaler datacenters here.
We know that the cloud uses datacenters, but they are far smaller and use less energy. Almost all new datacenters being build or being projected are huge hyperscaler datacenters, which uses a lot more water and energy than any of our previous ones.
And most importantly they are planned for sustainable value
The difference now is a mad rush to add many more in a very short while, overwhelming power and water and appropriate sites. And that it’s likely a bubble, so many of that mad rush is likely to be abandoned in a few years
You say on a Linode hosted server

Good thing I found out that my server is hosted on an average mom-n’-pop Oracle hosting barnyard.
P.S. whats the costs piefed.social incur monthly at your small town Hetzner server?
