So much this. End users should get the choice where to run software.

The devs don’t have to support me on that stack. But they shouldn’t have control where I run code I purchased.

I’m looking at you, Paprika Recipe Manager. If your Mac-native version is that much better, I’ll buy it. But fuck off for telling me there are technical reasons you can’t allow me to run your iOS app on my Apple silicon Mac.

 

I thought data caps for home internet were a thing of the past…

I’ve somewhat recently moved back to a very rural area of the Midwest. Small town. No stop lights. Biggest businesses other than the bars are Casey’s, Subway, and Dollar General.

And we have one ISP (not counting DSL) — Mediacom. When we first signed up, I had to go with the second service tier. But not because of speeds, but so I could have a reasonable 1 TB/mo data cap.

Lucky me, they increased the cap to 1.5 TB. 🙄

I hope that in my lifetime I can see ISPs regulated as a public utility.
