Veronica ExplainsI'll take decentralized and janky over simple and evil.
Every day I try to remember the paradox of convenience:
When a tool is challenging early, it sucks early, but often it's great later.
When a tool is easy early, it sucks later.
Eggs now in different baskets.@veronica Tools that are easy to start with can also teach you bad habits which end up being hard to unlearn.
A bit like not learning the proper fingerings when you start playing a bass guitar.
Then later that great bass line you really want to learn is that much harder as you have to re-learn how to play at the same time.
