I think they hate the commercialized Internet, and I do too.

Government control more. Continually restricting things that go against their viewpoint. Pushing digital ID online despite obvious security risks.

It's becoming an increasingly bad time to be hosting anything on your own, having to worry about whichever 0-day the clankers are going to find and/or exploit within minutes of it being patched. I'm not sure even nginx is safe in all of this. I used to think there was software that should be basically safe but I'm not sure hosting anything (open-source) yourself anymore (i.e. directly participating in the Internet on a personal level) is a good idea.

Having to go through 3rd party services (and rely on them to stay on top of things) to participate is not fun.
