You’d have a hard time finding a service at scale that wouldn’t kick you off for the kind of things cloudflare does. All the big players remove certain types of content from their platforms.

It is a postgresql extension that you install on top of a normal postgresql server, so it is not worse in any way. Timescale works by creating a 'hypertable', which is an aggregate of a lot of smaller 'chunk' tables. The

The distinction they try to make is whether or not timescale is a ‘value added’ thing or not. You can’t provide a customer with a hosted timescaledb for them to use as the service, but you can provide a dashboard that stores data in timesca

I agree with this to some extent.. but I think a text editor is a little different than gitlab. Even within the realm of text editors or IDEs, there are still successful paid options (not to mention that the author is conflating ‘open sour

They certainly CAN monitor all of this.. but a lot of them don’t. I don’t think it really matters if the mouse or something is yours, it’s really about the computer itself. The policies and practices vary between companies. Are you suggesti

I’m curious what you mean by this - the community version has most of the features in it.. and if you are willing to pay for something, you’d an run the enterprise version on-prem.. my experience with that is that it’s quite cheap, and you
