Have they tried using remotely hosted servers instead?

They don't what a "server" is.
There is no cloud it's just someone else's computer. Some else will have to keep the lid open.
You can keep my computer's lid open for the low price of $25/mo
I'll need access to your webcam. I don't really believe in "The Cloud".
Hey, if there's a market for people watching me sit at my desk and stare at my screens for $25/month, you're welcome to. It will be very boring.
Have you heard of http://twitch.tv?

> Twitch made an estimated $1.8 billion revenue in 2024 and had an average of 2.37 million concurrent viewers.

Somehow I doubt I'd make much. I may have an ego, but not one big enough to think enough people would watch me ignore them... But maybe I should try.
