It's still early, but I see the benefits of this #openSource #CMS by #Cloudflare

But it will take s lot of time to replicate all of the features provided by thousands of #WordPress plugins.

I'm surprised that debate about the length of unskippable ads didn't originate from an European country.

If the access to information is treated like a basic #humanRight (as it should be), then regulation of #ads should definitely be imposed.

The argument that it will affect the already absurdly high revenue of #bigTech, is a poor one.

YouTube's long unskippable ads may have finally met their match

One country is passing new rules that limit platforms like YouTube from running unskippable ads longer than five seconds!

Interesting report on the trends related to #openSource projects.

Unfortunately it's not surprising that the dependency on those projects is increasing, while the funding is almost nonexistent.

I wonder how long this paradox will be sustainable.

I can definitely relate. Most of the traffic to my website comes from #socialMedia.

I guess it's a modern version of mouth-to-mouth referras that was always crucial for #smallBusiness with a limited marketing budget.

As for #ai, I'm not sure how easy it is to track the data apart from the referral percentage from their individual web locations.

Social now leads search, SMBs are frustrated by AI summaries, and most visibility still depends on the homepage.

I'm always for a good #openSource alternative to #bigTech #apps, if it's available.

I hate that #Google has hijacked #android, and I'm waiting for a day when I can delete most of its default apps.

Really interesting list in this article. I'm already using a few, and they're good, but I'll have to try the rest.

I found a polished open-source alternative for every Google app on my phone

Going open-source no longer means giving up functionality.
