Is everyone in commercial software development finally saying, "Fuck it, we'll run the shit ourselves"?

I'm an infrastructure and devops noob here; take my words with a grain of salt.

I need GPU clusters with ECC VRAM for research and found it's cheaper to just have my own high-ish performance compute in my own office I paid for once than pay AWS/Azure/GCS/etc forever or at least everytime I want to train a custom DNN model. Sometimes I use Linode but it's for monitoring. But I can run shit at will and I have data sovereignty.

Has the paradigm shifted back to developing and serving things in-house now that big tech vendor-lock/tie-ins have so many dark patterns that scalability isn't cost-effective with them? Or is it just my own pipe dream?
