I still see only "Lake Ontario" on my end (from Canada).

And the way it's written, I certainly wouldn't want to trust that provider with my business. "Nobody saw it." is certainly honest but if you don't have uptime monitors for your servers, what else are you missing?

Also seeing this. Same issue on various machines and Internet providers, so it points to GitHub being the issue.

Edit: works now, as of 10:06am ET.

You probably mean "2024" here, right?

I think they meant "across manufacturers".

Great catch, thank you for pointing this out. Looks like it's resolved now.

This describes most everybody.

If the organization you're looking to join is minimally humane, they'll be open to giving you another chance later down the line. In the event of a rejection, ask whoever's communicating with you for feedback, and mention that you'd like to try again later.

Worst case scenario, it doesn't work out and you discover that this organization is not willing to help people grow and give them a second chance, which could be a sign of other cultural problems below the surface, and you dodge a bullet in the process.

Best case scenario, you're in.

The middle ground is that you know you can prepare a bit more and try again later.

I feel like there's little downside to doing right away. I'd say do it.

Thank you for mentioning Aegis, a few other folks have recommended it as well. Looks promising!

Thanks! I read good things about Organic Maps, I'll try it out.

Thanks for the feedback!

I realize I wasn't actually using Google Photos, so my recommendation of hard drives likely isn't realistic for most people. TIL about Photoprism, I'll look into it.

For Google Drive, an actual solution for a typical use case would be something like Nextcloud (self-hosted or not, doesn't matter). My own use case was only about sharing a single file between two machines, so Syncthing fit the bill perfectly.

Again, thanks for sharing your thoughts :)
