then why not let them generate the key itself?
So I can revoke the key if I need to (my understanding is that you need the private key for that)
Hey @njaremko,
Thank you for using Graphite and your support. This is something we're aware of and current thinking around.
Question, if we were to support this by signing commits: Would you want the commit to be signed by the Graphite GitHub App? Or would you prefer for it to be signed by Graphite on behalf of you? Or some other option that we haven't considered?

I think letting me give you a gpg private key and you sign commits with that would be ideal. I'm not sure how the app signing commits would work, since it needs to be signed by a member of our org I believe?
I've been using this for a few months now, and it's been an absolute joy to use.
One thing that's been a bit annoying: my org enforces signed commits, and when you merge a stack, they sometimes rebase commits internally and lose the code signing, so you end up with an error to merge the rest of the stack.
Aside from that, working with stacks has been great!
It looks like Docker support is still a paid feature? That's disappointing. I had written a blog post outlining how important docker support was and explaining how little work it was to get working, and at the time the maintainers agreed it should be a free feature, but it seems they've changed their minds.

What differentiates this from a more general solution like fly.io? It seems like what’s being provided is an auto-scaling docker deployment with fast cross region network links, and storage? Fly provides all of that, and isn’t focused on gaming. Why would I choose Hathora?

Seems like nix makes this more work then just a simple 2 step Dockerfike that builds and sets it up to run.
(I’m the author) It’s only slightly more work, but what you get in return is a reproducible dev shell, a reproducible build, and a final docker image with over 100 very granular, optimally ordered layers. That last bit makes the diff of consecutive images much smaller, which can be nice.

(Author here) Never expected something I wrote to be on the first page of HN begins sweating. I’ll be checkin this post throughout the day, so if anyone has any questions, feel free to ask.

I'm never sure why people speak so positively of IHP. It's like, yes, I'm a fan of Nix and Haskell, but IHP is effectively paid (at $25/mo! that's not even a paltry sum) for any of the more worthwhile features regarding account management. I have no clue why I'd want to buy into an ecosystem where such features are sequestered away from me by default.
(I’m the author) The only feature in the paid list that I’d agree with you on was support for building docker images. I thought it was silly to charge for <15 lines of nix code that do something so fundamental for a web framework, so I wrote this blog post and convinced the maintainers to make it a free feature.
Now I think the remaining stuff is fine, paying for a stripe integration and oauth libraries doesn’t trigger any alarms for me, personally.
