@otfrom @Jgmeadows it's definitely a price of freedom, taking on various costs (and learning how to run your own things). like any costs, there may be contexts where it's unaffordable. but i can't for the life of me understand how so many well-funded projects tether themselves directly to AWS/Azure/Google APIs. or how standard and ubiquitous GitHub-specific tooling has become for testing and CI among firms capable of independence.
