I never implied that they were badly run, merely that they’re not operating within the current boundaries of reality. If there’s any place for government intervention, this is it. But it’s a slippery slope to subsidize business that are act

It’s a risk mitigation measure being applied to what’s clearly a very risky business currently. The sword cuts hard but this exactly what it’s for. The underlying businesses are in trouble and payment processors don’t want to hold the bag

Nice work! I primarily use TablePlus, but it's lack of support for saved queries is a big downside, this could be great for that use case. A couple of UX things I've noticed, do with them what you will ;) - When clicking on a tabl

I see no downside of allowing your employer to actively exploit others, simply because they're not (currently) exploiting you. "They've always been good to me", you say, "I never would have expected this."
