It's constantly getting the red head step child treatment and has been described as:
Clunky, cheap, outdated, and just plain bad.
The goal was retro (as in payphones). I just see the beauty in it much like a parent sees the beauty in their own child... but is this one really that foul?! Why?!
Surprisingly your the only one who has mentioned Keycloak so far?! I switched several projects from Auth0 to it some time ago and didn't look back... particularly when they started tightening things since said projects were not even profitable.
Good points. The primary motivation is simply to get useful feedback from legit users. Similar to when you post something on Show HN but more focused. An NDA for essentially a few minutes of someone's time does seem like a bit much... so likely it wouldn't fit this type of need.
Initial post on THN was great in terms of feedback, traffic, etc. but back to dribbles and depression (dead pan facial expression). I feel like a techno thot waiting for the next rush of "attention"... but is it the same... I wonder? All that aside, I'm really wondering what the smarter individuals that me out there would do to grow this "idea" or simply dust bin it?! I mean it's useful for me, but... maybe I'm the weirdo in the room... I probably am... no doubt.
I appreciate this further use of the tattoo analogy. At its core, the data exists on a server, but it's intriguing to ponder how many times it has been duplicated, cached, and stored. How many individuals and devices have contributed to this process? Is there an absolute method to ascertain this complex journey?
Undoubtedly, nothing on this planet, whether digital or physical, internet-based or in print, is truly everlasting. Eventually, everything returns to the earth, a poignant reminder of impermanence.
Drawing a parallel to tattoo removal by laser, I'm reminded of an old girlfriend's experience. While she possessed a remarkable pain threshold, it was an ordeal she wouldn't willingly revisit.
So again, I still feel data online is very much LIKE a tattoo in its permanent nature, and time only strengthens that feeling.
I hate getting a push notification for a Reddit post and then clicking on it only to find... "This posting has been deleted by its author." (the Reddit version of that)
We are headed to Black Mirror episode https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Entire_History_of_You, just saying. Particularly with smart glasses seemingly (for real this time) on the horizon. So, tools like this will pale in comparison to what's to come.
Unfortunately, when you post ANYTHING online... one must assume it's like a tattoo... that is to say permanent. Not saying it's right or wrong (because believe me I have my own privacy/trust issues), just saying it is reality.
Clunky, cheap, outdated, and just plain bad.
