That domain name can be parsed a couple different ways in English.
I guess I'll take the bait. I thought this was going to be a page or collection of things that reduces the total amount of load, but really it's just a collection of opinionated alternative software.
I thought it might be "get away from one monoculture with harmful activities with a better option", but it's not that either, really?
I mean, some of these are fine, but for mosts of these, I don't see a reason for the alternative choices?
Like, if you're using AnyDesk, you're probably using it for a reason and that reason won't allow Chrome Remote Desktop, TightVNC or anything else.
If you're using MySQL or PostgreSQL, you've already made that choice on purpose. If you're using Terraform, that's a choice you made. If you're using Ruby, you definitely already know about Python - and probably hate it, honestly.
There's no defenses in the article, it's just an opinionated list without the opinion part.

Why the hate on 7zip?
