Remember when technology people made Standards instead of Platforms
Email. IRC. SMS. HTML and shit. The fucking internet itself
Those things would never ever be made today. Instead they'd be shitty proprietary apps that probably only work on shitty proprietary hardware and can't be used by anyone without permission from the company that patented them
That's still kinda happening today? With stuff like dat and SSB and ActivityPub. But all of that is super super niche and technical and not at all accessible to the average user (with the exception of AP as of pretty recently). And it just sucks man, web 2.0 is bullshit

I've eaten pizza every day this week
I've not seen anyone who wasn't a family member this week
This is bad

Ops: How do I make this not break
Devops (theory): How do I make something that works and doesn't break
Devops (practice): How do I make this work
SRE: How do I make this not break since devops isn't doing that step
Ops: how do I make this not break?
Production engineer: how the fuck I am supposed to integrate this without breaking everything else?
Sysadmins: how this even exists?
Tech support: why people who made this are allowed to exist?
Users: what is this? what was wrong with 2012 version?
The other two were great

You can tune myql by turning it into Postgres!
My friendica server is on another continent, so backups take FOREVER to push offsite and restore, and the only way to update is to pull the backup, upgrade on a bigger disk, and push back to london
Both of those track connections, and when possible, device fingerprints
Also, this is the default in Firefox and Chrome, so watch out

Level 3's 4.4.2.2 *probably* isn't too bad, and OpenDNS has resolvers that aren't evil, and has rebelled against adding tracking to DNS
@Hypolite Petovan, good one is running your own DNS server preferably not in your country jurisdiction and connect to it over protected channel (DoH, DoT or just setting your home router to it and routing DNS requests via VPN). -
Myself I am lazy to set one up (it is on todo list) so I just VPN to 1.1.1.1 and 8.8.8.8.
This obviously is a job I should go for - right?

You just can't have it both ways. Making something accessible is expensive. Commercialization has been a way of doing so. Crowdfunding is another.
