It might be a good idea to add auto splitting. I won't bother assigning each and every dependency an amount. Kinda like Xbox Game Pass or Setapp.

Because they kinda caught the opportunity? If Google didn't, someone else would.

Please note that competition in search market is different from providing small businesses with advertising opportunities. The "blessings" came from their position being the dominant search provider, not from their being Google.

Ask HN: Any note-taking software that has AsciiDoc support?
The market is filled with note-taking apps, knowledge bases, second brains, etc. in which you can write notes in Markdown. How about AsciiDoc? It's better in quite a few aspects, though not gaining much popularity. Anchors can be put pretty much anywhere, and linking to them seems more natural than "backlinks". Complete table support. Also has native admonitions.

How about cloud storage? iCloud, OneDrive, Google Drive, etc. Good apps support those out of box; for desktop install their client and use the file as you normally would.
Re:Ask HN: How is international (Unicode) email address support in 2022?

There's this case where the webmail showed a mangled version of the Unicode character, while in the raw email it's correct. That amused me.
Ask HN: How is international (Unicode) email address support in 2022?
Playing with IDN domain names, I had several problems with services supporting such email address:- Gmail doesn't allow me reply to a friend's email, though they could send to me - GitHub would 500 out when adding a GPG key with a UID with Unicode email address - Some services can't outright send the email to such an addressA thread from 2017 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=14831756 and...

You are right - I just didn't see that for years, and didn't bother to search for it.

Re:Ask HN: Are del.icio.us style domain names not accepted at all?

True. Domain names faded away as a visual identity, replaced by logos, even though some are just stylized text.
Ask HN: Are del.icio.us style domain names not accepted at all?
With enough money, companies buy company.com.Without, they usually go with getcompany.com, usecompany.com, companyhq.com, companyapp.com etc. but nobody seems to bother using c.ompany.com or co.mpany.com.Without considering other TLDs (.co, .app, etc.) and domain hacks (del.icio.us itself counts as one, but here it's to make a point), what do you think is the reason of this?
