@domenkozar:matrix.orgDomen Kožarcachix pays cloudflare, btw13:15:48
@domenkozar:matrix.orgDomen Kožarand we would pay to another provider if there was a competitor13:16:27
@domenkozar:matrix.orgDomen Kožar * and we would pay to another provider if there was a decent competitor13:16:48
@domenkozar:matrix.orgDomen 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:delroth.netdelrothyes, and you can't force me to contribute my time to nixos13:17:55
@domenkozar:matrix.orgDomen Kožarand that's the beauty of how to world works :)13:18:50

@patka_123:matrix.orgpatka

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
@domenkozar:matrix.orgDomen Kožar patka: I respect his opinion, but threatening like this is not a way to have any decent discussions 13:20:35
@domenkozar:matrix.orgDomen Kožar * patka: I respect his opinion, but threatening like this is not a way to have any decent discussion 13:20:36
@domenkozar:matrix.orgDomen Kožar * patka: I respect their opinion, but threatening like this is not a way to have any decent discussion 13:20:43
@patka_123:matrix.orgpatka 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

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 ?

@patka_123:matrix.orgpatka

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
@domenkozar:matrix.orgDomen 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:matrix.orgsinavir joined the room.13:26:44
@patka_123:matrix.orgpatka 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:matrix.orgraitobezarius Just to be clear, I stand with @delroth on the CloudFlare choice. 13:56:15
@raitobezarius:matrix.orgraitobezarius 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:matrix.orgraitobezarius 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
@adam:robins.wtfadamcstephens 🐝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

@whentze:matrix.orgWanja Hentzeis it specifically an issue with Cloudflare or cloud providers more generally?13:58:27

The amount of minorities contributing to our project is a bit visible
13:58:38
@raitobezarius:matrix.orgraitobezarius 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
@adam:robins.wtfadamcstephens 🐝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

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:matrix.orgraitobezarius Yes 14:00:06
@raitobezarius:matrix.orgraitobezarius I support complete self hosting and minimal cloud computing 14:00:41
