I don’t want an unlimited bandwidth promise, I want a cap that I know can never be exceeded. I mean, I use Azure professionally and one of the key reasons I don’t use it to host my own stuff is exactly because it could potentially become ve

I don’t think you’re “bumping against the same “free” forces somehow”, because you seem to have given away the whole pizza for free for 6 months. I think you need to study companies that transitioned from a free to a paid product rather tha

Out of those I think Microsoft is the only one that isn’t sort of inflated. If Facebook disappears the world will hardly notice. If Apple does it’ll be hard to find a good laptop that can keep battery for 9 million years and it’ll be hard t

That wouldn’t be the main risk in my country. It would be people using your home as a brothel and fucking everything up. If AirBnB can provide a way for that to not happen, or at least for it to stop within a few days with our strong renter
