        There are more than 64 clouds!! It’s a storm. They really should say things are in the storm, not 64 clouds.

        There are ARM CPUs for servers and cloud computing. Of course X86 CPUs are far more common, at least for now.

        Personally if I ever decide to host an instance I would prefer to do it on aarch64.

          Cloud is just a fancy word for someone else’s (most likely x86) computer
