  • I suggest framing the blog post this way. The way it reads now is like you’re actually suggesting this to other small instance admins. I think it’s OK to play around with new tools, but the article is not self aware in this respect.

    EDIT: it’s also comes off like, oh no one silly keystroke nuked my setup, but from an outside perspective, of course it did, it was a house of cards. I think a better framing would be that you dug a large hole for yourself by trying to force enterprise level complexity into a one-person project, and through sheer perseverance it somehow is still alive, but maybe some different architectural decisions early on could have avoided this.
