At Heroku, we basically destroyed a generation of folks personal projects when we deprecated various free plans. (My own software died too.) Now Glitch is making the hard decision to do the same: blog.glitch.com/post/changes...

The lesson is simple: don't build in the cloud if you want it to last.
Important changes are coming to Glitch
We’ve got an important update for the Glitch community today: We’ll be ending web hosting for your apps on Glitch.

this dialogue perfectly captures the problem with "decentralisation" as our guiding principle. we've reached a point where the word has become nearly meaningless through overuse and inconsistent definition. the goalposts constantly move, making productive conversation impossible. 1/12
oh you thought it was decentralized? you fool. I've already deployed new goalposts at every point of the star topology
