Did you mistakenly post this? It's simply a link to the Sentry.io "About" page rather than any exploration of alternatives.

I wonder if the author is aware of Neil Postman's work, especially "Amusing ourselves to death". It seems very relevant to this article.

It's kinda frustrating that Mozilla's CEO thinks that axing ad-blockers would be financially beneficial for them. Quite the opposite is true (I believe) since a ton of users would leave Firefox for alternatives.
It's financially beneficial for them in exactly the same way as setting yourself on fire makes you warmer
Isn’t the “solution” for Sentry that deploying it is such a pain in the ass that no one bothers to really do this? I haven’t checked in years but that always seemed like the real competitive blocker?

I'm personally on the fence how much of it is intentional... from the_mitsuhiko's side it probably isn't, but "the purpose of a system is what it does" and all.

"Will be sunset on Dec 10"... commit date: Dec 10.
That seems like rather short notice.

I've never felt right about the framing of "destroying wealth" when stock prices go to some new number. If anything, the word "reflecting" seems more applicable?
vanschelven commented on Django: what’s new in 6.0 adamj.eu/tech/2025/12/03/... · Posted by u/rbanffy
I think another ace up Django's sleeve is that it has had a remarkable stable API for a long time with very few breaking changes, so almost all blogposts about Django that the LLM has gobbled up will still be mostly correct whether they are a year or a decade old.
I get remarkably good and correct LLM output for Django projects compared to what I get in project with more fast moving and frequently API breaking frameworks.
The "one way" / "batteries included" aspect of Django may also make it easier for LLMs

Whatever you think Jimmc414's _concerns_ are (they merely state a possibility) Simon enumerates a number of concerns in the linked article, and then addresses those. So I'm not sure why you think this is so.

This is not the riposte you might think it is. Duplication serves a different purpose in print; it lets you avoid having to pass the memo around.
I think the riposte is against the word "always" and it worked precisely because one could blindly pick a counter example from the physical space of the discussion.
I.e. it worked because it smashed the broad statement and forced a discussion about particulars. Now who was right about those, I have no idea, since I wasn't even present.
And without a few hundreds of billions of EUR invested _today_ there will still be at least a decade until basic infrastructure will be somewhat on par with current day hyperscalers from the US.
And Office suite wise, it took Google about 15 years of pouring money into Google Docs to be almost as good as the MS offering.
Today, if for political reasons some EU companies will switch to whatever Europe has to offer in terms of cloud computing, they will need to spend a significant amount of money to retool their day to day pipelines and invest into developing or replacing cloud services with alternatives from the new provider or self-host if there is no native offering.
There’s a chance that the current situation will start to resolve itself in 3 years and we go back to normal, however that might look.
Also: there may be _a_ chance that the situation will improve, but as the Dutch say "Trust Arrives on Foot, but Leaves on Horseback" and your even given your "even if" the trust thrown away in the past year will take literal decades to repair.
