Can someone point to the reasons why such talented people use discord for their projects?
same goes for those that create self hostable, privacy oriented services and bake in dropbox and/or google drive support... like WUT.
Because most selfhosters are too lazy or inexperienced to break away from cloud services. Docker is great but it has also enables a "just run this docker" mentality that mirrors the Windows "just run this exe."
edit: I think that the opportunity to learn how a project works, how to debug problems and how to integrate a project into their own setup is obscured.
