I get these arguments and I see the appeal. But should this be the primary reason to use them, this way the web is being massively centralized. Everything running through them doesn't seem that smart to me.

But of course I understand that for most users this isn't really a concern and the benefits that cf provides are much more important rather then the centralization problem.

Yeah, for me this is the main reason. I don't need it (even though I self host many websites, some having 100k requests/day, which is reasonable for a homelab). But most importantly, and don't want all the traffic to my websites being MITM by a company, even more so when it's foreign

I just wanted to ask the same thing. I have a really basic idea of how everything is connected but would love to jump in more in depth.

How can such big incidents occur where half of the internet is down because of one company and what can be done to prevent that?

What's the best resource to keep track of all efforts to make open source phone OSes?

I'm looking for a new phone and it's tough with the current state of things.

Also about contacting your government, what's the best approach? I'm in EU.

The thing that bothers me the most is government apps. How can a government require me to use a certain os or browser to use something.

What are someways that we can be active about this and have support for these apps everywhere. I'm in Europe . For banking apps, sure ok, I can still go tho the bank but what if that becomes unavailable for me to do. Our countries can't build software based on evil companies like Google.
