Re:Render nuked my entire account with no notice on Sunday August 13, 2023 @09:32AM (#37109883)
I love Coolify for personal projects, but it's not ready for production/business projects yet. You can't really compare it with Render, Railway or Fly.

Some reasons why I wouldn't use it for critical infrastructure: - It doesn't have high availability options (if a server goes goes down, your service goes down) - It doesn't handle backups

It is great for excellent for anything non critical though

Exactly, I wish European mobile makers had adapted faster in the late 2000s.

We most likely wouldn't have to deal with the cyber moral police, and total lack of privacy we deal with now (which this is part of)

*With CBT, the user putting a lot of trust in the app and this feels like a violation of the trust before anything starts.*

My exact feeling here.

I felt the same as this comment, it's off putting. Marketing tactics everywhere using information we enter in a survey. No pricing shown until the end. University logos to show social proof. I'm sure it's a well thought product, but in some ways it looks scammy. It also looks wildly overpriced for an automated product, comparing it to an actual doctor you can talk to is a fallacy. By the way, how can we delete our information if we don't buy and we got to the end of the survey? Thanks!

Thanks for sharing this. One of the best pieces I've read on the topic, it's sad to see society's shift in this regard. I agree with you, and we can't know yet what the consequences of this will be in the long term. It seems like it matters less and less how good we are at what we do, and more and more what "class" we are considered to be in.

In my view there are few things more rewarding than taking control of our lives, and stop blaming others for our own shortcomings.

Mmm, "privacy-friendly". It asks for a phone number (it's mandatory during sign up), which can only be obtained with an official ID...

Re:Ask HN: Shopify self hosted e-commerce alternative? on Saturday June 20, 2020 @12:37PM (#23584839)
I would suggest Woocommerce. It has a huge community with almost any plugin or theme you can think about. I am not sure it makes sense to do it in your case, as you are likely to spend more time on the store, and less growing your business.

Some managed hosting options at different price levels: Kinsta.com WPXhosting.com SiteGround.com NameHero.com

Some themes, plugins, that can help you get up and running quickly: Elementor.com kadencewp.com/product/kadence-woo-extras/ wpastra.com/woocommerce/ commercegurus.com/product/shoptimizer/

Re:Getting Google to ban our entire company on Monday May 21, 2018 @03:35AM (#17116776)
That's unlikely to work. You are still putting all your eggs in one basket. This seems to be a variation of the setup this company has/had.

Unless you are using different browser profiles or installations, and IP addresses for each account every single time you use them, it's very easy for Google to see that requests are coming from the same computer. If you were shut down, they would be able to do it as in the example, all accounts closed at once.

Nice. I really like adioso. I have recommended it to a few people already.

I also think Skyscanner (also mentioned in this discussion) is very good.
