It's almost like everything becoming more centralized leads to more outages, complacency and status quo that slows down innovation and reduces redundancy.
Kinda, but based on ye olden times experience, we were all much worse at running our own hardware.
I will agree that despite the relatively high reliability, I think we'll likely have a black swan event at some point in the future that we will regret not having tested off site disaster plans.
How does this has anything to do with centralization? These recent GitHub outage largely linked with Azure outages, it is either they are migrating to Azure or the migration caused Azure outages
Large tech companies tend to buy other companies when they grow and with that, centralize the ecosystem. Microsoft buying GitHub and moving all the infrastructure to Microsoft is a classic example on centralization. And the frequent downtimes are another classic example on the drawbacks of centralization.
