This is great. Could you add the posts from my old blog, _Open Access News_ (2002-2010)? Here's a full copy preserved at Rogue Scholar. If that copy is hard to index/harvest/mine, just let me know and I can point to other copies.

For those unfamiliar with the heady world of fanfiction, AO3 is community-owned, open source, run entirely by volunteers. So APCs, no paywalls, no $$$$ profits (imagine that!) - just shared infrastructure built by people who actually use it.

Just imagine if academic publishing worked like that...

The question isn’t "why does Signal use AWS?" It’s to look at the infrastructural requirements of any global, real-time, mass comms platform and ask how it is that we got to a place where there’s no realistic alternative to AWS and the other hyperscalers. 3/
