In the era of enshittification I can't really see the logic in tying a bunch of your infrastructure/services to the likes of stripe.

Then again I also don't see the logic in asking spicy autocomplete to write code or provision services for you either.

Maybe I'm just not the target market. I guess if you're spinning up 5 new toy todo list apps a week to show off how well you can talk to a predictive text engine maybe this is actually useful.

“Spicy autocomplete” absolutely made my day. Thank you.

It probably also doesn't make much sense to me because I see external services as something to use when we have to, not as default choice.

When your application runs on VMs you control and just uses a payment gateway and an email gateway it's hardly a challenge to get the services setup.
