Nope, the other app they mistake for mine was taken down too. Maybe with just cause, I don't know. All I know is my app was unrelated and innocent.

Oh, that's the best part. The support team sent me an incoherent message semi-explaining the ban and then blocked my email preventing me from responding to explain their mistake! Just stone-walled with no path for remediation. And just to be clear, I was not being rude/aggressive in my messages or anything like that.

I was a happy Netlify user for years until they silently took down my app without warning. They blocked my account based on a bogus DMCA claim, the details of which point to a DIFFERENT app with a similar name. Unacceptable behavior from a hosting provider. I'll never use them again.

Scary. Not sure how democracy survives when adversaries can make people say anything they want them to.

A first glance, this may sound like a case of a bad US company meeting reasonable labor laws, but Euro laws of often unreasonably restrictive. Companies choose to leave entirely, as happened here. How many people lost their jobs so this one person could have their payout? This company definitely sucks, but still unfortunate for others caught in the crossfire.

Nothing new under the sun. This is just the latest in the pendulum swinging back to the same server-side strategy that Php/Django do. There's a reason we moved away that! Client-side apps are an elegant architecture that takes advantage of computing power on edge devices.

The title is misleading. Bitcoin isn't reliant on Stablecoins. DeFi, is but DeFi !== Bitcoin...

Greatly reduce the likelihood of supply-chain attacks.

I'm not convinced this is a problem. In terms of ways we leak privacy on the web, this seems very low on the priority list.

I've been burned by observables in a large scale knockout project too. Definitely left my weary of observables for UI development in general.
