I’m thinking of using Storj because I’d like a trustless solution. Are there any other good alternatives in the decentralized or Web3 space?

    That is not what that term generally means. Somebody COULD be running their own cloud platform, but if you’re speaking to a large group of people and you say “Cloud deployed”, they understand that to be deployed to a Cloud Provider on a secured platform and location (AWS, Google, Azure…etc).

    We don’t say “cloud” in engineering anywhere without meaning this. We may refer to a non-colocated deployment of something as “edge” or “off-site”, but never “cloud”. There isn’t a single engineer on this planet who would ever confuse “deployed to cloud” to mean somebody’s basement.

      The name cloud comes from depiction of “somewhere on the internet” in network diagrams. I don’t know what corporate environment you’re in but you’re using the term incorrectly.

        Lol, okay, bud. Not only are you absolutely wrong and seem to have no professional experience with this whatsoever: search engines, engineering blogs, Wikipedia, history, and every other known source of truth on this disagree with you, yet here you are arguing anyway. Amazing. 😎

          Thanks for the Wikipedia article. Can you quote or paraphrase the first sentence?
