You are nitpicking and TBH I don't get your message. My post was a general advice and the tendency of a creative mind, still you need to look into each case and decide if make or buy. And your NPM trap analogy is just blatantly wrong and doesn't help OP. You could have mentioned any package manager btw.

This is the reason why I pay for Dropbox to host my pictures. The problem with Google is often not about severe privacy problems, it's about 'you never know' and getting educated and finding the right setting is hassle everytime. Worse here is FB.

My brain says never, for everything there is some turn-key thing. Even your entire project might be franksteined with some third-party products and Zapier into something working. Same with libs, better a crappy lib than working days for something you might not need.

My gut says always: most of the times turn-key stuff has weaknesses and good libs with perfect apis, well maintained and with a great community are rare but they are there of course.

Hard question since what the gut says is more fun while the alternative is just about gluing libs together. But using libs and once they don't fulfill your needs build yourself is the right but more boring way to go.

Ok good to know. Fan control is super important, the only one managing this well with different and really working profiles seems to be Dell. Lenovo just started to get better there (with the S940 which is quiet but because of heavy throttling and no options for profiles, however better than the way around).

Ports are good and what Apple does is ridiculous but it is also about which ports.

Nowadays, I tend to miss real Thunderbolt 3 ports on USB-C, better 2 than 1 and with 4 lanes. This is what they totally forgot. So I could connect to an ancient VGA projector but not to a common 2x 4k@60hz display setup? This doesn't make sense.
