Domen Kožar | sure :) | 13:15:25 |
Domen Kožar | cachix pays cloudflare, btw | 13:15:48 |
Domen Kožar | and we would pay to another provider if there was a competitor | 13:16:27 |
Domen Kožar | * and we would pay to another provider if there was a decent competitor | 13:16:48 |
Domen Kožar | delroth: I'm sure you have reasons to hate cloudflare, but you have to also understand you can't force that on others | 13:17:22 |
delroth | yes, and you can't force me to contribute my time to nixos | 13:17:55 |
Domen Kožar | and that's the beauty of how to world works :) | 13:18:50 |
Domen Kožar | * and that's the beauty of how the world works :) | 13:18:57 |
patka | Huh, what is this reasoning? delroth is saying that he doesn't like cloudflare and that they would then leave? You are the one forcing cloudflare on others by making sure we move there Domen Kožar. I hope you can be a bit more considerate than this.
First barge in here and destroys people plans with some "wait, I'll get funding" and then this... | 13:19:31 |
Domen Kožar | patka: I respect his opinion, but threatening like this is not a way to have any decent discussions | 13:20:35 |
Domen Kožar | * patka: I respect his opinion, but threatening like this is not a way to have any decent discussion | 13:20:36 |
Domen Kožar | * patka: I respect their opinion, but threatening like this is not a way to have any decent discussion | 13:20:43 |
patka | What is threathening about it? they are just sharing what they'd do themselves. The only "forcing" thing is not having a conversation and honestly interacting, while forcing cloudflare on others | 13:21:28 |
Domen Kožar | In reply to @delroth:delroth.net if that's going to be the foundation's stance on things, I hope you're ready to accept the consequences that come with it have you read this ? | 13:22:21 |
patka | This is how burnout happens. People not being listened to and when they do make a plan that someone comes in with "promises to fix things (funding in this case)" and negates the plans. While also probably (I don't know) having enough weight behind them to just force things through.
I have read that indeed. But saying that they would leave is indeed a threat, and also something that should be taking into account, right? Especially because then we'd largely have a dead infra. | 13:24:57 |
Domen Kožar | patka: that's my point about burnout I was having earlier, I've seen this play out many times in the past and it always ends the same | 13:26:15 |
| sinavir joined the room. | 13:26:44 |
patka | Anyway, I have said what I wanted and am going to pull out of this again. Sorry if I stepped on anyones toes. I was just reading this and hoping this wouldn't be how things were normally dealt with. I don't think it's a smart and sustainable way to do conduct business | 13:26:58 |
raitobezarius | Just to be clear, I stand with @delroth on the CloudFlare choice. | 13:56:15 |
raitobezarius | We have a clear community with clear opinions and stances w.r.t to CloudFlare history, we don't need to throw them money and be hypocritical about our values | 13:57:18 |
raitobezarius | This is not the same situation as before where we had zero infra people and had no idea where we will be going, there's plenty of choices and CloudFlare can be heavily penalized in that list so that we won't even need to consider it IMHO | 13:58:12 |
adamcstephens 🐝 | Do we have a clear community opinion on this? That feels presumptive to me given this discussion and my own personaly opinions. | 13:58:14 |
adamcstephens 🐝 | * Do we have a clear community opinion on this? That feels presumptive to me given this discussion and my own personal opinions. | 13:58:23 |
Wanja Hentze | is it specifically an issue with Cloudflare or cloud providers more generally? | 13:58:27 |
raitobezarius | In reply to @adam:robins.wtf Do we have a clear community opinion on this? That feels presumptive to me given this discussion and my own personaly opinions. The amount of minorities contributing to our project is a bit visible | 13:58:38 |
raitobezarius | I took an expansive interpretation of clear stance on this because I assumed that people are aware of what happened with Kiwi Farms :) | 13:59:21 |
adamcstephens 🐝 | To be clear I have no love for Cloudflare, but I also consider Amazon to be problematic. But they get to fly under the radar I guess. | 13:59:57 |
raitobezarius | In reply to @whentze:matrix.org is it specifically an issue with Cloudflare or cloud providers more generally? This is specific to CF regarding their role on enabling certain sorts of consequences in real world from what I see, but maybe delroth had something else in mind | 13:59:57 |
raitobezarius | Yes | 14:00:06 |
raitobezarius | I support complete self hosting and minimal cloud computing | 14:00:41 |
