It is not irrational on the part of the developer -- I've definitely felt this too. The problem comes from the fact that practically everyone has subscription fatigue these days, and each of us probably has only a few pieces of softwar

First of all, I’m skeptical about these being free. Time isn’t free, and the tokens to make these projects certainly weren’t free. Second of all, all of these SaaS apps that don’t actually have a need for recurring charge probably should be

I don’t believe you dogfood your own service when it’s critical infrastructure. It’s common to use competitor infrastructure for core services so you have fault tolerance if it fails. Ideally your status page is on a separate cloud in a sep

This is just Google going after those proprietary “end to end encrypted” email services healthcare and other places use. Technically speaking they don’t accomplish anything but from a compliance perspective they seem to satisfy regulators.

I find Kagi somewhat perplexing with this release. On one hand, the search engine is clearly good at surfacing content that isn't AI slop, and it has initiatives like the "small web" that endeavor to surface smaller websites.
