    I found parts of the Django RAPID architecture [0] to speak to me. It specifically advocates for just one app. Here's a part of the justification. > Slicing up your project into ap…

    This is one of the goals of the digital services act.

    > We regularly see legislation that is being rammed and rushed through in spite of vocal opposition. This implies that regulation is codified. The clear pattern of EU digital regul…

    They're proposals by a minority. I'd like to see it go to see chat control go to grave permanently, but I'd also rather not that the democratic system allows for the permanent barr…

    What examples of this do you have in recent years (post 2016)? The clearest example of lobbying (chat control) has repeatedly been struck down.

    Considering the absolute deluge of politicians and celebrities allegedly promoting financial scams on norwegian Facebook my hunch is absolutely not.

    I've always found it confusing how run of the mill SaaS trades at multiples assuming decades of doing business. The amount of change in software businesses has been massive and bei…

    Access to read 1 million posts through the X API costs $5000/month. Enterprise access to their API costs $42 000 per month. Multiple researchers are being told by X that they must …

    This clearly has the goal of muddying the water of the DSA transparency requirements. It's an opaque way of trying to mislead users into believing that X is being transparent while…

    There's a clear winner of surveillance in the set of the US government, US companies, and the EU government and EU companies. Not only is the EU miles behind the US, the US is acce…

    Really abhorrent how the current US government is spinning this into their tried and true "free speech" crusade despite it being mostly irrelevant. The DSA's core goal is transpare…

    That's a marketing role, not a product role.

    Thanks, looks interesting. I may play around with it. I think what happened was that I landed on your page. Read the landing page, which only contained code. Scrolled to the top an…

    Please add more examples or a demo page or something. The gif and picture in the github repo is the single most descriptive part of your documentation, but a gif is terrible UX and…

    What a horrible take. I feel compelled to say that in my experience people in northern Europe can empathize with and separate the population from a dysfunctional two-party politica…

    That would make more sense if the law was limiting speech. But it has been clearly designed to not give governments the power to remove content/services/products that are not illeg…

    Thanks to some frankly amazing American propaganda there's a surge of interest in free speech in Europe. Funnily the same regulations that aim to remove toxic products, make platfo…

    I'm newish to Django. Been using it for about a year. I had some experience with React earlier. But I'm more of a data engineer. Django Cotton [1] scratched my itch fully. Very com…

    I think the issue arises from them doing this on the supply side of the market as well. Discriminating offers to drivers in order to prioritise people willing to drive for less. Or…

    The extrapolation to the entire Europe from a set of extreme outliers (Germany, understandably so, the UK, less so) is grossly disingenuous.

    Plausible, Fathom, Umami and the others all do cookie-less tracking too. Why don't you add an option to track through cookies? Most serious businesses have the consent for putting …
