I disagree with #1. Did you see how much they spent per month on AWS? If a normal bootstrapped startup was spending that much, they wouldn't last more than a couple of months.

@AznHisoka, I did not mean to imply that hosting is free.

What I was driving at is that hosting was previously a multi-million dollar investment.

Before LinTel became the norm, servers ran on Sun, which was extremely expensive at their scale.
