You can run one yourself, obviously, but exclusively Neo-Nazis will join it, and then you’ll inevitably have to moderate it anyways when people start posting illegal content. Up to you if the server costs are worth it.

Google just has a lot of storage space. They have dozens of data centers, each of which is an entire building dedicated to nothing but storing servers, and they’re constantly adding more servers to previous data centers and building new data centers to fit even more servers into once the ones they have are full.

IIRC, estimates tend to put Google’s current storage capacity somewhere around 10-15 exabytes. Each exabyte is a million terabytes. Each terabyte is a thousand gigabytes. That’s 10-15 billion gigabytes. And they can add storage faster than storage is used up, because they turn massive profits that they can use to pay employees to do nothing but add servers to their data centers.

Google is just a massive force in terms of storage. They probably have more storage than any other organization on the planet. And so, they can share a lot of it for free, because they’re still always turning a profit.

Gotta vote no on this one. Meme communities will form on their own if they’re not allowed here, and it’ll be easier not to let memes in at all than let them in and try to keep it from getting out of hand eventually, I feel.
