I’m going to be honest, I have no idea how open source works. I can’t imagine maintaining anything more than a tiny library that I can ignore six days of the week.

Also: open source relies on good jobs. You can only do it if you have a well paid low stress job with good hours. Those have been in short supply recently.

I think the free time covid gave, followed by the free time the layoffs gave, and AI have been patching / hiding the fact that the core model of open source is completely unsustainable in its current state.

That’s interesting. I heard the show was good, so started reading the books, and stopped after one cause the characters were so annoying.

There’s soft serve but it doesn’t have a UI

I do want it at least clonable over https

Radicle doesn’t support windows

Interesting, though this seems to only be a UI, not a server

To echo my other answer, I’m sure I could get it running, I just dislike using tools that are significantly more complex than I need.

It seems designed for like teams of people. They both have like admin interfaces, which I can’t ever imagine for my use case.

I don’t know a ton about Gitea, but I’ve recently starting looking for a simple git server + decent web UI

Gitea and Forgejo are the main recommended ones, but they both seem overly complex. (3D File previews?? Who needs that?)

Bro trust me I’ve been around since the start, it would be less weird if they WERE paid.

Maybe based on location? idk. It said from the start “after we verify your info”, I didn’t realize they literally wanted pics. I kinda stopped after that, but there seems to be no way to cancel the order, so I’m just letting it sit until it expires.

I tried OVH, prices seemed great… up until they asked me to verify my info with a picture of a government issued ID.

What the fuck.

Qoi is good for some situations cause of its simplicity, but it’s not really the “best” at anything

Pantir is one company I wouldn’t mind burning to the ground

Pretty sure everyone does, but they will take you through it first, not drop the topic change without context.

Also it’s considered weird and off topic, so even if they think it they don’t bring it up

Well, my experience is the with the US market, it may be worse here idk, but here you go https://www.statista.com/chart/34197/share-of-us-respondents-use-email-providers/

Also I forgot apple

How much power is in the hands of the people and not a few companies?

That’s exactly what I’m talking about though. Google, microsoft, and kinda yahoo basically control the entire market. A few providers like fastmail fight over fractions of percent. Email today feel much worse than lemmy

The fact that email is at the top here is clear evidence this is not a good metric dude. Email is not decentralized these days

Considering the upvotes, you guys seem to have filled in just fine

post is too [good] unfortunately
