SSR tools and flashcards are amazing for knowledge retention. When I started learning new language, my google sheet with words I wanted memorize grew to hundreds pretty quickly. I wanted the simplest possible app that would let me to import and repeat words from my list anytime I have even a few minutes to spare. And being a developer, of course I decided to write one myself. It’s a bit different than anki and obviously has less features (it’s a pet project after all) but the concept is pretty similar: https://byheart.io/

And probably you as a customer are a main target of such video, but the fire was such a high-profile case (I think) that this should be more understandable for general audience.

edit: not sure why I got downvoted (and I don't really care that much), I just think that communication from CEO of big company after such event should be clear for everyone, not only for those directly affected.

IMO you should take this fire as evidence, that you need to have (working!) backups wherever you host your data. AWS, GCP Azure are not fire resistant, same as OVH. I don't know if OVH is more or less competent than big three, I choose to trust no one.
