It's easy to say "oh, this is just enterprise controls, and your family is an enterprise."
But then I remember every time I've had to delve into actual enterprise administration, and yeah that's its own full-time job.
Side rant: when will businesses acknowledge that an account might be owned by two people (spouses, for example) and allow separate logins for the same account? Their terms of service almost always prohibit sharing passwords, and because the lost password flow would require sharing an email address, you didn't want to do that anyway.
- eddythompson80 10mo agoOn the other hand it’s easy to say “just give me enterprise level controls but in an easy and intuitive interface” I’m not saying that’s not possible, but if you have somehow figured the “right” abstractions and interface to achieve this in an incredible simple and sensible yet just as powerful and complete way that any parent can manage it, then you’d make a killing in enterprise sales. It’s not like enterprise IT admins love Group Policy or any random Joe can be a Linux sysadmin.
- sowbug 10mo agoI agree. There was a while when I, the sweet summer child that I am, hoped that the late 90s-early 00s crop of founders would start families of their own and naturally steer their companies toward the family-as-enterprise-but-actually-usable model. I'm still waiting.
