However, there are reasons why you might not want to use it:
- You don't need async at all
- You want to own the async execution polling completely
- You want some alternative futures executor like io uring (even though tokio-uring is a thing)
- Sony WH-1000XM4
You can see a list of network protocols in /etc/protocols actually, or here: https://www.iana.org/assignments/protocol-numbers/protocol-n...
Node JS has had vulnerabilities in the past: https://www.cvedetails.com/cve/CVE-2021-22940/
Go is also not Memory safe: https://www.ralfj.de/blog/2025/07/24/memory-safety.html
Need to add gas planning next!
- Comparisons against other types of stacks, like laravel livewire or phoenix liveview
- Performance metrics/stats/benchmarks whatever. You need to be faster and more robust than the other things out there, or provide some other benefit
- First Class self-hosted on premise install version without dependency on any cloud provider. Kubernetes helm charts or docker compose stacks or whatever
- I do actually like that you have a time-windowed source available license. That is something that alleviates the concern if you go under
- Jepsen or similar analysis, need to make sure whatever consistency guarantees you are advertising hold up
I am interested in knowing who would make a decision to pay for something like this when there are a gamut of open source options available. Like what is the compelling reason to use something like this.
An example of friction in darktable:
- I have an external strobe which means I have to put the exposure down to its lowest when shooting, otherwise everything is washed out. Darktable in newer versions has "Compensate camera exposure" on by default, which washes out all the images until I click it off. I'm sure there's a way to make this checkbox disabled by default, but why can't it accept what comes out of the camera?
- No favourites: there used to be a way to have all your panels in a favourites tab. This was great as I usually only use a handful of modules that I use. It's gone in later versions
- The "color balance" panel, not to be confused with "color balance rgb", it's not in any of the default tabs but useful for saturation adjustments. Why are some of these useful modules hidden? Shouldn't all modules be available by default. The only way you can get to it is by searching.
- White balance: there are now two modules and it warns you if you adjust one or the other: "white balance" the standard one on the "base" tab and "color calibration" tucked away on the "color" tab. Both modules are turned on by default, but if you adjust one or the other without turning one off it has a big red warning.
- One upgrade decided to reset export settings, and so my EXIF data was stripped out when exporting. It took me way too long to figure it out.
It feels like this is worse than a package manager? As in why would I trust a random git repo to keep things up to date over the officially published channel?
