Elon Musk has bought Twitter, shocking for many, for many also a liberating blow from censorship of unwanted content. But Elon is a capitalist and his investment of several billion dollars, should also be worthwhile, the blue check mark, which is the symbol on Twitter as proof of a real person behind this account, should cost money and that, is good.
For some time I have noticed one thing, the files are getting bigger and bigger, mainly images, since 4K, 8K and images with more than 30 megapixels are made, files are getting bigger and bigger, and that's a problem. Not because you can't handle it, but because these quality resolutions are not needed in everyday life and waste storage space, in the name of the technological mantra, bigger, better, further, higher....
For more than 8 years I'm already a web developer and working in my self-employment, there come more or less known sites, technologies, CMS and stacks to eyes where you think to yourself "Hey, that's WordPress!" or "OMG, that's Joomla/Typo3 :O", some websites you can see that directly, with others I only need to read briefly in the header of the page source and know what this page is built with, what I'm dealing with, what theme is behind it, what plugins are used and who adheres to the DSGVO/GDPR or not, yes, I have so found some websites already, where the Google Analytics anonymous_ip was not set 😉 . But no one pays me to report other sites, nor would I get money to take care of the errors of another site.
As a developer, you always have to be up to date, just so you don't get left behind and work with outdated knowledge. An exciting source of the latest services and technologies can be found at ProductHunt.
This isn't the first time I've blogged, I've posted on another blog before. But with this post that changes.
I've been active on Facebook for at least 10 years, on LinkedIn for at least 5 years, never experienced censorship on I LinkedIn. Until it started with Corona 2020. In 2020 I got my first notification and a post was removed, what it was I don't remember. In 2021 there were 3 and until now, October 2022 at least 3x posts of mine were removed.
