r/FinOps is a subreddit with 8k members. The most common kinds of discussions are solution requests and advice requests, and the community frequently discusses finops, cloud, aws, cost, and ai.
A practice for Cloud Consumption and cost control, called FinOps. A place to discuss with (some?) anonymity, and allowing self-promotion (please declare it though). We are working with /r/GreenOps & /r/FinOpsFemmes and now /r/tokenomics
