Dec 23, 2022 at 21:39 | comment | added | J. Gwinner | Mokubai, I do appreciate the info, thank you. Think through it - if the help center only mentions 'home' in one place, and the RDS tag fits ... yes, I put things in the wrong place, but you can see that someone would. I still recommend someone change the about page on SU to say "Home computer hardware" and "home computer software" as it's honestly not clear. I'd also add under the "Not about" to say "Not about Cloud Providers such as AWS, Azure, and Google Cloud". It really isn't clear. The only time 'home' is used is for "Home computer networking". I did check that page before posting. | |

Added a picture regarding the tag that I posted under.

Dec 23, 2022 at 0:07 | comment | added | J. Gwinner | That may be, but there's a dozen questions directly hitting RDS logs. To downvote my question because the spaces description isn't clear is egregious. If I'm asking the question - it's evidence there's a problem. If it was obvious, I wouldn't have to ask. A downvote to the question is a downvote for SU's metadata. | |
Dec 22, 2022 at 7:37 | comment | added | Mokubai Mod | The amazon-web-services tag description is pretty succinct: "Amazon web service questions are on topic here only if the question is about the operating system or using a PC application hosted there." We only support using applications in the cloud in the same way as you would a normal home PC. Questions about the service itself or web applications around it would be off topic. | |
