  • I don’t want to get philosophical on the first part of this comment, but the second part is sadly just wrong. Paying attention and spending more money most often doesn’t change a bit - at least where I’m shopping. Maybe the animals have a little more space on their factories and their feeding uses slightly less land, water etc.

    But this is a very important point for many vegans: It is a way to critique and boycott a very shitty system that doesn’t allow for any good choices.








  • It’s defenitively not a scam. It does exactly ehat it should and is pretty good at it.

    However, especially google is pushing it on everything, even when they are not needed. Punishing search results if they don’t enforce https, make it hard to access sites in chrome etc.

    I have a static website that takes no user input whatsoever, thus https is pointless and a waste of compute power/energy.

    In the end I see the biggest issue in not very tech literate useres thinking everything with https is legit and trustworrhy, while it really isn’t.





  • Many older projects don’t get migrated to containerized infrastructure and smaller businesses don’t want the overhead it creates to run a single app/webpage. Plain LAMP with FTP access is still the most common way to host I think (and thus the cheapest if you consider the amount of work that would need to be invested to containerize).


  • I’m sure there are a lot of reasons why PHP is better than Python for the backend, but I created an app wirh Symfony 5 and then an app with Django 4.

    Symfony is so weird compared to Django. With Django I can just sit down and get things done. Symfony always seems to have some quirks which are mostly due to PHP (and me not knowing how to program in PHP).

    That said, PHP hosting is so much easier and cheaper, this probably is important for smaller projects.
