it's annoying but as you show, it can be automated away trivially

A regular day in modern France. The "country" is vastly different in culture and ethnicity than the country during those times

Sounds a bit like registering and reported to each country's VAT system, which almost no online creators do (even ones making hundreds of thousands of online subsription revenue)

I have to say, it works pretty good. I tested it by creating a Kafka cluster here: https://x.com/kozlovski/status/2050943790580457646

In <15 minutes it got everything up and running - the Kafka brokers, the Kafka controllers, schema registry, Grafana. Pretty impressive

are there really no other maintenance tools that do this already? seems like a low hanging fruit?

Yeah, which is why this Ursa-for-Kafka (UFK) fork can be a drop-in replacement. It holds both the classic Kafka topics with disks, and the Ursa engine topics that have higher latency.

I agree with your assessment re: latency. I've been very vocal about this ever since this type of architecture came out.

It could also be that the world as a whole cares less about privacy today than they did seven years ago. Without a relative measurement from a similar platform, it's a bit of an empty statement

One thing that has certainly changed is that algorithms have become more aggressive. If your content isn't performing well, it gets hidden much faster and more aggressively than before. This makes sense when you consider it from the PoV of the platforms (they have much more content to choose from)
