Oh for sure, the article folks are inept and absolutely not the people I was talking about. I'm just talking about stuff more like Discord or Steam that are huge distributed systems that don't use centralized databases.

Edit: that don't use centralized databases. I blame the ADHD.

Edit 2: I am agreeing with this person
