@ailnoth @kadei @siina great, now do a graph that shows the net promoter score over time for various tools πŸ˜‚
@neverpanic Well,l been thinking about building asome kind of backend in GO. and meybe even build a stupid API server for it. And do really stupid stuff (and see if it is possible to get to work in other shells too, bash does not have as fancy hooks for example) @kadei

Love this thread so far. Might I mention you would need some kind of check up on GDPR if you are to collect data like this....?

@n not applicable for what I’m intending to build as I will not host a public server. But provide something you can self-host and play around with. GPDR aside, hosting something to the public that can collect data from the shell is a way to big security risk, as someone, somewhere will accedently end up sending something they should not have. @neverpanic @kadei

Surely nothing a license agreement and GDPR consent banner couldn't handle, though. THEN we could make some directories.

I wonder though, this infrastructure has to come at a cost. How would it be financed? Users seem to be accustomed to creating directories at a whim, for free even, so I am thinking that maybe there needs to be a free tier to this, ad-supported I suppose, for low volumes of directory creation.

@n DRM + Cloud Activated Licenses of course.
