I mean, vendor lock-in and lack of resiliency to a vendor-specific outage, maybe caused by some piece of their stack you have never nor will ever touch, or maybe the platform CEO decides your kind of company isn't expedient for their business anymore, are among the reasons why a company should never have ended up in that situation in the first place.

You can continue along that road of least resistance while ignoring all of the risks. That is up to you. You'll probably be fine. (Not joking, you'll be fine. But don't pretend like this is all necessary.)

The "business" people in charge. Aka the people who don't contribute and mostly fuck shit up.

It's on us engineers to fix their shit thinking. You know they won't.

It does not have to be this way. Stop pretending it does so that you don't have to worry about it.

There are alternatives with better APIs. Or, you know, don't buy into the bullshit and rack up a few servers yourself.

Tired of this "oh, but I can't 😢😢😢."

Unsubbed.

Don't need to be giving my dollars to the spineless, or worse, to a fascist-supporting media owner.

He has no idea what's inscribed on the Statue of Liberty, does he?

Do any of his supporters?

Not a fuckin patriot among them, it seems.
