this is not time nor place to bring our the morals because we all have our own and it's going to be impossible to find a common ground, that's how morals work convenient | 13:13:41 |
 @domenkozar:matrix.org | we talked to Cloudflare and they would give us some mass discount | 13:13:49 |
| @domenkozar:matrix.org | but they never gave us a number | 13:13:57 |
| @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 | 13:14:01 |
| @domenkozar:matrix.org | delroth: is that threatening? | 13:14:27 |
| @delroth:delroth.net | absolutely, I can tell you that at least I'm having nothing to do with a foundation that funds cloudflare | 13:14:48 |
| @domenkozar:matrix.org | sure :) | 13:15:25 |
| @domenkozar:matrix.org | cachix pays cloudflare, btw | 13:15:48 |
| @domenkozar:matrix.org | and we would pay to another provider if there was a competitor | 13:16:27 |
| @domenkozar:matrix.org | * and we would pay to another provider if there was a decent competitor | 13:16:48 |
| @domenkozar:matrix.org | 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.net | yes, and you can't force me to contribute my time to nixos | 13:17:55 |
| @domenkozar:matrix.org | and that's the beauty of how to world works :) | 13:18:50 |

 @patka_123:matrix.org | 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.org | patka: I respect his opinion, but threatening like this is not a way to have any decent discussions | 13:20:35 |
| @domenkozar:matrix.org | * patka: I respect his opinion, but threatening like this is not a way to have any decent discussion | 13:20:36 |
| @domenkozar:matrix.org | * patka: I respect their opinion, but threatening like this is not a way to have any decent discussion | 13:20:43 |
| @patka_123:matrix.org | 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 ? | 13:22:21 |
| @patka_123:matrix.org | 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.org | 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.org joined the room. | 13:26:44 |
| @patka_123:matrix.org | 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 |
 @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. | 13:58:14 |

 Wanja Hentze | is it specifically an issue with Cloudflare or cloud providers more generally? | 13:58:27 |
