Yeah, that's the important part for me. The "fun" part about the sandwich app is nice, but the part that differentiate it from other content is stuff like: > The free VMs themselves are just a bit of memory and some idling CPU, but the state is obnoxious for us to manage. > But here's what happens if you give people freemium full access to a hosting platform: lots and lots of free VMs mining for cryptocurrencies. If I had to put words on it, I would call it "transparency" and "treating their public as adults/with respect". I know that free storage is hard to find because disk space is harder than CPU and RAM to manage for them. I know that I need to put my credit card because people will abuse the free tiers for crypto if they don't ask for a credit card (sourcehut had the same problem with their free CI). I don't feel like they're trying to hide something from me, even if they still wrap it in some fun. This is the behavior I would expect from a good collegue. |
