It doesn't have a great cross platform support (no Linux client, and there are many complaints for the Windows client). Personally, I dislike that you cannot restore an older version of a file on laptop/phone, and must instead use

Sharing files between apps and file management in general on iOS is atrocious. I assumed this was a solved problem before Windows 98 (first desktop OS I used), but Apple cannot get this right 28 years later.

I'm quite sure there are many application hosting providers which rely on container runtime such as runC (default runtime of containerd/Docker), and a shared kernel between users.

You should use a separate WhatsApp account for bot purposes. Recently, I used a separate WhatsApp account to interact with a group chat that I have with my friends. After about a week, they disabled the account, with no way to re-enable it.

Seems like it only supports x86_64. It would be nice if they offered a way to bring your own compute, to be able to work on projects targeting arm64.

Cloudflare Tunnel publicly exposes your services, whereas Wireguard/Tailscale are VPNs. Tailscale (but not Headscale) offers Funnel, which is a reverse proxy, but you cannot use it with your own domain. Pangolin is the closest alternat

Huh? I'm not seeing any popups except the cookie banner at the bottom of the screen. Pricing link is the second one in the top menu, and it shows all prices in a straightforward way.

European Hetzner VPSes have at least 20 TB of bandwidth, and US ones have at least 1 TB. I don't think there is a cheaper CDN.

Unless I'm missing something, AbortSignal is quite standardized on backend as well. Of course not all libraries support it, but many do, and support seems to be growing.

If 95% of what app does is calling a DB, then the bottleneck is in the DB, not with the PHP. You can use persistent DB connections, and app server such as FrankenPHP to persist state between requests, but that still wouldn't help if DB

Unless you manage to leak your private host/client SSH keys, this is close to being as secure as it gets. I'd say that HTTPS (or TLS in general) is more problematic, since you need to trust numerous root CAs in machine/browse

Great, now we need caching for something that's seldom (relatively speaking) used by people. Let's not forget that scrapers can be quite stupid. For example, if you have phpBB installed, which by defaults puts session ID as query

GUI might not be as powerful, but in my experience, it's similarly non-intuitive as alternatives, such as VirtualBox / UTM (macOS) / VMware Fusion/Player. For anything more complex (e.g. GPU passthrough) you will need to

I don't like this. Bad user experience with AI and general enshitification of Windows was the push that many people needed to at least try Linux, and for companies to take Linux a bit more serious as the desktop platform.
