I built my first Slackware box from source.

How times changed.

Sad to break it to you but it was 30 years ago.

We have a tendency to stick to what we know but everything changes constantly and us being connected amplifies that.

  • I imagine that this makes it much less viable for hobby use, or as a dependency for other open source projects, but setting up a private docker registry and building this image nightly isn’t onerous for any business

    • The fact that these things are happening at all is enough for us to shop for alternatives. MinIO will be completely gone as soon as we identify the best option and get it rolled out, which should be rather quickly.

      If they were hoping to drive conversions to paying customers, they've done the opposite, at least with my employer.
