Who knows what was going on. In an ideal world we have the time needed to do things well. In reality, you've got twenty developers asking for something, users requesting features, various government agencies asking for documents, the l

If that's our standard of evidence then I've resolved bugs by getting a coffee and doing nothing else. :) Bug resolved. Reason: not enough coffee. Seriously these systems are complicated and it's easy to confuse correlation f

If it is indeed an issue of rate limiting.

I've always seen free plans as a way to get started. A great way for a startup to get things up before they get money rolling in. Then as you grow, you outgrow the free plan but by then you have the money to upgrade.

If we have a large forum and someone decides who gets to speak, that is censorship. That will allow whoever is in charge to shape peoples perception of reality.

> You often can. Let's try some exercises: Most of the times most of these things are complete straw men that people claim _others_ believe. And you fell for it. so no you can't.

Although people are worried about disinformation, many people will also label anything they don't like as such. That way content can be censored in a palatable way.
