Well, I’m pretty pissed, and it feels like Google, probably the biggest Internet company, has really gone insane. I mean, a web company stops selling domains? Why? It makes total sense with their Cloud offerings and other stuff like managed Gmail/apps
Anyway I have like a dozen domains there so I’m just going to hang in for the rollover and hopefully I don’t need to do anything. Ultimately, I use this stuff like 2ce a year so it doesn’t really matter who holds the domains for me
Yeah it’s been obvious and foreseeable that normal admins won’t have the bandwidth to handle takedown requests and cp spam attacks. Sadly the only stable state I see for the fediverse is relying on centralized content hosts that can handle those problems. Well, maybe until AI can do it
I manage like 200 servers in Google cloud k8s but I don’t think I’d do that for home use. The core purpose is to manage multiple servers and assign processes between them, auto scaling, cluster internal network - running docker containers for single instance apps for personal use doesn’t require this kind of complexity
My NAS software has a docker thing just built into it. I can upload or specify a package and it just runs it on the local hardware. If you have a Linux shell, I guess all you really have to do is run dockerd to start the daemon, make sure your network config allows connections, and upload your docker containers to it for running
I’m a Joplin contributor and if you think the android app is halfway decent, that’s a win ahahaha. The desktop apps are what makes it a superstar though, with all the plugins and community. The mobile apps have been slowly modernizing but it’s real basic
Yeah just keep laying off staff until they are, amirite?
Statements like this are always saved for when a corp justifies layoffs. The reality is that the American tax code is made to encourage corps to spend all the money you make (in which case corps don’t pay tax at all). VCs and big tech leverage their positions to massively increase power whether the individual company has savings or not
