Agreed.

I somewhat share this sentiment but I was also just answering the question. There are actual reasons one would want to host documentation/etc on a already realized provider vs infrastructure they'd have to configure and potentially pay for themselves.

Takes time and resources to setup a web page. Takes 5 seconds to spin up a discord server or a telegram group and they handle all access control. Not my preference, but for ease of deployment a lot of people prefer to launch there.

I don't personally disagree, but I don't know what sort of business challenges they face. Also I should add that 132 Million number isn't traffic or transactions, that's verified customers that have made at least 1 purchase. That all being said there is definitely a redesign/restructure/rebase needed, but the ship takes crew to keep it sailing even if it needs remodeled/repaired/etc.

Sites at that scale that cannot afford errors, downtime, or system breaches operate massive IT teams just to keep the systems running. That's before even touching Logistics,Advertising, customer service, seller outreach, brand management, human resources, etc, etc. Ebay in 2023 had 132 Million customers. That's 12,000 customers per employee per year, or 32 customers per employee per day assuming they worked the full 365 solid. A rather lean storefront actually, probably propped up significantly by the labor of their third-party sellers.

If it's not receiving security patches then it's not a good candidate to use for 2factor. Risks are low but anything without security patches becomes a minor speed bump to bypass as published exploits will likely exist that are trivial to implement.

Wyoming contains some of the longest stretches of US road without available services. IE: If you get stuck because your car broke down, you’re gonna have a bad time.

Here's to betting you wouldn't hold this opinion stuck on the side of the highway in the middle of Wyoming or something similar.

It should be noted that this car does not yet qualify for Lemon status and qualifying for lemon status is actually harder than the average person would casually think in most US states. So it's actually entirely fair that they wrote the article, as they do with every car in their long term test fleet. Manufacturers use all sorts of tactics to hide real world reliability data, if you're looking to them to source it you're buying your rat poison from the rat company.

Because people on Bing video or Odyssey are more likely to engage with Google services....

Keyword "Random". The code for the packages that shipped for your os and for your user installed utilities are generally 'trusted' code since you sought out the install. It's not bulletproof, but it's a good start vs running any package that happens to land in your downloads folder.

The letterboxed app was good. It recently got bought by a larger company, so who knows for how long, but you can ride that ship for a while
