"owned" til someone upstream squeezes us harder / we do stupid shit that loses us customers and we go out of business

Isn't this basically what Overwatch was in it's heydey?

Besides, the limit of bandwidth is almost entirely artificial. Yeah, it costs some amount of money to send, say, 500 SMS messages, serve 1 GB of data, or process a 5 minute phone call. But not nearly as much as you're paying and it's not like they pay per SMS/GB/minute, once the infrastructure is there they pay a fairly flat amount to keep each service area running (until it's time to upgrade but depending on where you are, that might even be publicly subsidized). So, whether you're allowed 10 GB or 20 GB per month makes barely a dent on their cost, but getting you to pay $15 for 20 instead of $10 for 10 when $20 for 20 already isn't an option is really good for their bottom line.

I'm a react native and flutter dev. They're very, very good for 90% of use cases. Even if you're only developing for one platform, they're actually quicker to get started on and be productive than native development, especially if you use something like Expo to get your app started as fast as possible. If you're doing performance critical applications or need access to hardware other than the usual camera/Bluetooth/internet, then you probably are better off writing it natively but that describes a very small handful of real-world apps and you can always selectively write some parts in native code.

EDIT: Also I didn't think it had to be said cause I thought Xamarin was basically dead but yeah, Xamarin sucks major ass.

What's the first IP and third?

Thanks, this is very helpful!

Well, my Ubuntu server is already running a whole bunch of things so I don't want to take it down and rebuild it on a different OS.

regardless of it being FOSS

Exactly, it's not about it being FOSS. It's about the nature of the software itself. Being against that software doesn't make you anti-FOSS. Additionally, open sourcing your malware is actually helpful for people trying to combat it.
