You are being a pendant as far as I am concerned and arguing semantics with me is not going to convince me and many others. So I suggest in future you should learn that using this line of logic (where you expect me to…
It isn't that they are crappy web devs. It is that often the org paying for the development doesn't care. I am a web developer of over 20 years. I can create insanely optimised pages using nothing other than vanilla CSS…

Containers are not Virtual Machines. 1GB cannot run a lot of server software. If stuff is written in .NET, Java or JavaScript. Hosting a non-trivial web app can use several hundred megabytes of memory.
Someone will come in when the price goes up enough. It will take time, but it will happen. What people are complaining about is that the time for this to happen is too long. Oh look, there is a player coming into the…

Corporations are not powerful than the state. They wouldn't bother cosying up to various Prkme Minister and Presidents if that is the case.
I was hoping someone like Musk (who is temperamental) would tell them to spin on it (I know people here don't like him). Politicians tend to use Twitter, so they would be directly affected. The benefit of KF and 4chan…
As I said the results were "ok". Obviously you would need to buy a retrotink or something similar to have the best results but all but the most expensive models are often out of stock. The biggest issue is that some…
A good proportion of people have the credit card even if they don't use them. 65% of adults have a credit card in the UK. https://www.merchantsavvy.co.uk/uk-credit-card-statistics/
You traded convenience for control. That is how all these big companies lock you in.

None of these corporations are going to have their CEO / CTO / CFO go to Jail, face the huge fines or get kicked out of the UK for you. 4chan, KiwiFarms etc. can stick a middle finger up at the UK because tbh they…
No not really. I've worked with good teams and you would be amazed at how easy it is, even with iffy tech stacks. Stuff even get documented properly.
