Cool! Reading through the page, there seems to be people behind this who know what they're doing.

I am 100.0% sure this is what someone has said for 256GB drives, 256MB drives, 256KB drives, and the same person will be saying it for 256YB drives.

As a gamedev, that sentence nearly gave me a heart attack. :)

I get where you are coming from, but the amount of work you can do in 5ms is mindblowing.

I'm not sure what to think about the fact that this whole thing is playing out exactly like in the movie "Don't Look Up". It's eerie.

I'm between fourth and fifth stage, trying to think how I could best prepare for the uncertain future.

Indeed, each one brings worse news than the previous.

I don't know man, maybe a massive antitrust case is enough.

I was seriousy shocked of all the abuse when I had to install a new winblows laptop for a relative. How is any of it legal? How the hell did we let it happen? Mindblowing.

I hate everything about this. Everything Meta touches turns to dystopian shit.

Yeah, no thank you. There's something wrong with the culture if the answer to this worsening ad dystopia is "just deal with it".

I agree. Especially the point about staying as a honest tool and not joining the growth-monopoly-privacy-theft -game at all resonated heavily with me.

Also kudos to Kev Quirk. Meta in its entirety is incredibly immoral in every way.

This is huge, and unfortunately not surprising at all in the age of massive ever-growing out of control tech monopolies that do whatever the fuck they want. Whatever reads in the TOS now, they can and will just reword it when they need it. There's no trust.

Every service and utility gets enshittificated sooner or later, it's a given at the moment. I deleted all my private repos, github and all other MS services should be avoided in the future.

The only solution is to self-host. Gitea is good.
